Eels I Could Never Take The Place Of Your Man (live At Town Hall) Lyrics

It was only last June when her old man ran away She couldn't stop crying 'cause she knew he was gone 2 stay It was 10:35 on a lonely friday night She was standin' by the bar Hmm, she was lookin' alright, yeah I asked her if she wanted 2 dance And she said all she wanted was a good man And wanted 2 know if I thought I was qualified, yeah

And I said, baby don't waste your time I know what's on your mind I may be qualified 4 a one night stand But I could never take the place of your man

It hurt me so bad when she told me with tears in her eyes (tears in her eyes) He was all she ever had and now she wanted 2 die He left her with a baby and another one on the way She couldn't stop cryin' Cause she knew he was gone 2 stay She asked me if we could be friends And I said, oh, honey baby that's a dead end U know and I know that we wouldn't be satisfied
And I said, baby don't waste your time I know what's on your mind U wouldn't be satisfied with a one night stand And I could never take the place of your man Yeah, yeah, the place of your man
