lyrics

Stand Up For My Man
© 2021 Colleen Messina and Early Times

Ever since Eve took a bite
From the forbidden fruit,
Women had to fight their way
To wearing business suits.

Now back when I was little,
It was clear and understood,
That women had to fight the men,
And winning would be good.

PRECHORUS:
But what if in that garden, Adam risked his life
By fighting with that sneaky snake, he quickly saved his wife

CHORUS:
Oh Ohhh, Gonna stand up for my man.
Oh Ohhh, Gonna stand up for my man.
Oh Ohhh, Gonna stand up for my man.
Oh Ohhh, Gonna stand up for my man.

How I love the right the vote,
I love my equal rights.
But somewhere in the mix,
There’s still the urge to fight.

The gender war is everywhere,
Commercials on TV…
Both sexes, men and women
Want superiority

PRECHORUS:
But what if in the movies, the Princess saves her knight
Then he kisses her with gratitude and feeds her appetite

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
He likes to catch the cab
I like to pay the bills
He loves to cook our meals
We don’t have to make a deal

When I find I’m being bossy,
This does not produce romance.
If I try to prove that I’m the man,
And that I wear the pants.

I have to take a breath
Let him take care of me
His protection, love and brilliance
Are what empowers me.

RECHORUS:
I find when I surrender, my man surrenders too
Together we can be a team and make our dreams come true

CHORUS
