Lyrics:

Well, my man, he sure mistreats me
First he'll love me, then he'll beat me
Yes, he cools me, then he'll fool me
How can you leave a man like this?
Well, I give him all my earnings
'Cause I gather all this yearning
And he sets my soul to burning
How can you leave a man like this?
I packed my bag and I went away
Things got rough and I couldn't stay
But I came back on bended knees
Forgive me, baby, if you please
Well, he loves to tantalize me
And his ways sure scandalize me
But he always satisfies me
How can you leave a man like this?
Yeah

He spends my bread on fancy chicks
He drives them crazy with all his tricks
He balls all night and he sleeps all day
He lives real sporty on my pay
Yes, he hugs me, then he'll chill me
Oh, he bugs me and he'll thrill me
His sweet loving really kills me
How can you leave a man like this?
