Sometimes it's hard to be a woman

Giving all your love to just one man

Oh, you have bad times, and you have good times

Doing things that you don't understand



Hey, but if you love him, you'll forgive him

Even though he's hard to understand

And if you love him, be proud of him

'Cause after all, he's just a man



Stand by your man

Give him two arms to cling to

And someone warm to come to

When nights are cold and lonely



Stand by your man

And show the world you love him

Keep giving all the love you can

Stand by your man
