Lyrics
Why you gonna let him hold you down
Why you gonna let him keep you
Why you want him to defeat you
Why you gonna let him beat you
Like somehow that completes you baby
Who you tryin to please him or you
Who you trying to hurt him or you
But I ain't never been a preacher
Don't want to tell you how to lead your life
Won't pretend to know wrong from right
I'm just trying to understand you tonight
I wish I was with you just one time
I wish I was there just one time 'cause
Then he wouldn't even try
I would like to see him even try but
It would just be temporary
I think you would go back in time
Would it just be temporary
Tell me would you go back now baby
Baby I know that you are lonely and blue
Baby I know how hard its been for you
And how you feel like you ain't always been true
And how there's things been taken away from you
But that don't mean that you deserve it
Baby to me you're only beautiful
Can't you see that you're deserving
I can only see beautiful
I am only just a good man baby
I am only just a very good man
Could you ever love a good man
Would you ever love a good man
Cause I am really such a good man
Would you ever let me treat you right
Why you gonna let him hold you down
Why you gonna let him keep you
Why you want him to defeat you
Why you gonna let him beat you
Like somehow that completes you baby
