Sometimes it's hard to be a woman  Giving all your life to just one man  You'll have bad times, he'll have good times  Doing things that you don't understand  But if you love him, you'll forgive him  Even though he's hard to understand  And if you loved him  Oh be proud of him  Cause after all he's just a man    Stand by your man  Give him someone to cling to  And something warm to come to  When the nights are cold and lonely  Stand by your man  And tell the world you love him  Keep giving all the love you can  Stand by your man    Sometimes its hard to be a Gimme  Giving all your love to just one band  But if you love them  Please don't make fun of them  'Cause after all we're just a band
