Stand By Your Man


Stand by your man

What do you feel

Do you give all your love

To just him

Do you forgive him

When he messed up

Or do you let him

Control you

Are you proud of him

Are you proud of your decision

Will you marry him one day

And be happy that he was

The one for you

That he was going to make you happy

And be there for you

Through thick and thin

In sickness and in health

In your highs and lows

Whether your wealthy or poor

But don’t be too hard on him

After all

He’s just a man
