Lyrics
When we first met I was the best you'd ever had.
Not like the other men who treated you so bad.
But you started looking back and I came to understand.
What you meant when you said "Your kind of man.?
(Chorus)
Your kind of man, he puts you in your place.
He likes to solve his problems in the old-fashioned way. .
You broke it to me gently...you broke it slow.
I would have to change or I'd have to go.
What you really liked was what you'd always had.
You said you liked your men to be a little bit bad.
(Chorus)
Your kind of man, he drinks his whiskey straight.
He doesn?t like to call when he?s been out a little late
I went to the bar for some redneck therapy.
Three Jack Daniels and the light came on for me.
I've got a pair of boots and a brand new attitude.
Get it in that kitchen baby and fix me some food.
(Chorus)
Your kind of man, he don?t apologize.
When you catch him telling one of his dirty little lies.
So if I'm out late, don't you worry about me.
It?s taken me a while, but I finally see.
I'll have a hot one in my lap and a cold one in my hand.
Gettin? the hang of being your kind of man.
Enjoying the life of being your kind of man.
It's easy as hell being your kind of man.
