Aretha Franklin - You're Taking Up Another Man's Place lyrics

You don't want me And you don't want nobody else to want me What kind of man, what kind of man are you? You don't need me And you don't want nobody else to need me What kind of thing are you trying to send me through? Now if you're not gonna take care of business Then you ought to stop taking up space Because you're just taking up, that's all you're doing You're just taking up another man's place Oh, baby, you don't even, you don't even Want me to go to the store alone What kind of man, what manner of man are you? You run over me You run right over me trying to answer the telephone Tell me what kind of thing What kind of thing do you think you're going to put me through? You keep me wanting You keep me wanting the one thing you never gave Well, right here now, you can stop taking up another man's space Baby, I've been faithful And you know I've been true But if you're not gonna love me Tell me what do you expect me to do Oh, if you're not gonna love me, baby And you know I need, I need, I need somebody to love me Then you just ought to stop taking up another man's space Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, baby If you're gonna leave me If you know you're really gonna leave me, baby Don't you know that you ought to You just ought to stop taking up another man's place You know I need somebody right now
