Love Me Like A Man

Lyrics: Chris Smither
Music: Chris Smither

Sung by Anna Rizzo with Kingfish in the 1980s.

These men that I've been seeing, baby
Got their soul up on a shelf
You know they can't really love me
If they can't even love themselves

And I need someone to love me
Baby I hope you can
Believe me when I tell you
You can love me like a man

I've never seen such losers
Even though I've tried
To find a man who would take me home
Instead of taking me for a ride

And I need someone to love me
Baby I know you can
Believe me when I tell you
You can love me like a man

Well they all want me to rock them
Like my back ain't got no bone
I want a man who can rock me
Like my backbone was his own
Darling I know you can
Believe me when I tell you
You can love me like a man

When I come home all sad and lonely
Feel like I'm gonna cry
I want a man to hold me
Not some fool to ask me why

Well I need someone to love me
Darling I know you can
Believe me when I tell you
You can love me like a man
