Never Take the Place of Your Man

Never Take the Place of Your Man - The Goo Goo Dolls

It was only last june

When her old man ran away

She couldn't stop cryin'

She knew he was gone to stay

10:35 on a lonely friday night

She was standin' by the fire

Unh she was lookin' alright

I asked her if she wanted to

Dance and she said

All she wanted was a good man who

Wanted to know if I thought I was qualified

I said baby don't waste your time

I know what's on your mind

I may be qualified for a one night stand

But I can never take the place of your man

It hurt me so bad when

I saw the tears in her eyes

She was all he ever wanted

And now she wanted to die

He left her with a baby and

Another one on the way

She couldn't stop cryin'

She knew he was gone to stay

She asked me if we couldn't

Be friends and I said

Oh honey baby that's ok you know and

I know know know you wouldn't be satisfied

I said baby don't waste your time

And I know what's on your mind

I may be qualified for a one night stand

But I could never take the place of your man

I may be qualified for a one night stand

But I could never take the place of your man

I may be qualified for a one night stand

But I could never take the place of your man

La la la oh oh whoa la la la

Never take the place of your man

That's all I need girl

Is a one night one night one night stand

I don't wanna be like a steak in your mind

Oh girl if you need a friend

I'm there by your side

Sha la la la sha la la

Sha la la la sha la la
