And there are enough men around hopefully Elizabeth,
who can help women open their hearts,
Bonnie Raitt puts it so well in her song "Love Me Like
A Man" from her 1972 album, "Give It Up":
The lines I used asterisks parenthetically for are the
ones that immediately came to mind, I had to surf into
an unofficial Bonnie Raitt site to get the rest of the
song's lyrics.
LOVE ME LIKE A MAN
The men that I've been seeing
well they got their soul up on a shelf
you know they could never love me
cuz they can't even love themselves
But I want someone to love me
baby I want one to understand
Won't put himself above me
Who can love me like a man
I never seen such losers
even though I tried
Find a mind to take me home instead of
taking me for a ride
Baby, I use someone to care
Believe it when I tell you darlin'
you can love me like a man
Oh they want me to rock them
like my back ain't got no bone
I want a man whose gonna rock me
like my backbone was his own
baby, I want to wait until you can
Believe it when I tell you darlin'
You can love me like a man
*Come home sad and lonely*
*Feel like I wanna cry*
*Come over here and hold me baby*
*and don't ever ask the reason why*
I said I, I want a lover
Won't have to work to understand
Don't put yourself above me baby
Love me like a man
