Singer:b.b. king

baby

here i stand before you with my heart in my hand

i want you greet it mama hopin' that you'll understand

oh baby

mama please don't dog me around

well

i'd rather love you baby

than anyone else i know in town

well

because you're so nice and lovely

and you have such pleasant ways

if you take to your home i'll be there the rest of my days

that's the truth mama

yes

you know i wouldn't lie

well

if i don't love you baby

i swear i hope i die

oh baby

don't you want a man like me?

yeah baby

don't you want a man like me?

well

you think only about our future

and forget about your used to be

well now

this is my confession mama

and i'm thrilled by all your charms

it seems that i'm in heaven when you hold me in your arms

now baby

you can have me for yourself

well now

you was meant for me baby

and i don't want nobody else

oh baby

don't you want a man like me?

yeah baby

don't you want a man like me?

well

you think only about our future

and forget about your used to be
