Lyrics John Martyn – You Might Need A Man

I knew the day that I would stand by you and all your failings
Now I’m looking out for me
If you want to split then I won’t tell a soul about you
Darling just you wait and you’ll see

You might need a man
I might just be the man you need
You might need a man like me
You might need a man
I might just be the man you need
You might need a man like me

I never thought I’d see the day you’d ever try to leave me
Now you’ve packed your bags and you’ve gone
All the money in the world won’t help you darling
Take a look and see what you’ve done

You might need a man
I might just be the man you need
You might need a man like me
You might need a man
I might just be the man you need
You might need a man like me

You might need a man
I might just be the man you need
You might need a man like me
You might need a man
I might just be the man you need
You might need a man like me

And though the craziness of city life surrounds you darling
Just because you follow every trend
Come the day you find yourself alone and feeling restless
That’s the day you’re going to need a friend

You might need a man
I might just be the man you need
You might need a man like me
You might need a man
I might just be the man you need
You might need a man like me

You might need a man
I might just be the man you need
You might need a man like me
You might need a man
I might just be the man you need
You might need a man like me

You might need a man, mmm
Ah let me be your man
You might need a man like me
I wanna be that man
You might need a man like me
Oh let me be your man

You might need a man
I might just be the man you need
You might need a man like me
You might need a man
I might just be the man you need
You might need a man like me
