Sometimes it's hard to be a woman

Giving all your love To just one man

You'll have bad times, and he'll have good times

Doing things that you Don't understand

But if you love him, you'll forgive him

Even though he's hard to understand

And if you love him, oh be proud of him

because after all he's Just a man

Stand by your man

Give him two arms to cling to

And something warm To come to

When nights are cold and lonely

Stand by your man

And show the world You love him

Keep giving all

The love You can

Stand by your man

Stand by your man

And show the world you love him

Keep giving all the love you can

Stand by your man
