eels – i could never take the place of your man lyrics
[verse 1]
it was only last june when her old man ran away
she couldn’t stop crying cause she knew he was gone to stay
it was 10:35 on a lonely friday night
she was standin’ by the bar
hmm, she was lookin’ alright, yeah
i asked if she wanted to dance
and she said all she wanted was a good man
and wanted to know if i thought i was qualified, yeah
[chorus]
and i said, baby don’t waste your time
i know what’s on your mind
i may be qualified for a one night stand
but i could never take the place of your man
[verse 2]
it hurt me so bad when she told me
with tears in her eyes
he was all she ever had and now she wanted to die
he left her with a baby and another one on the way
she couldn’t stop cryin’ cause she knew he was gone to stay
she asked me if we could be friends
and i said, oh, honey baby that’s a dead end
you know and i know that we wouldn’t be satisfied
[chorus]
and i said, baby don’t waste your time
i know what’s on your mind
i may be qualified for a one night stand
but i could never take the place of your man
