Late every night when I am all alone
I call my baby on the telephone
If she was here she'd treat me right
And love me, love me through this lonely night

Oh, I can remember how her love can be
I can't forget the way she looks at me
She told me as she took my hand
It takes a woman's love to make a man

We're here and they're tryin' to sell a song
Been on the road for much too long
All day, all night it's drivin' me insane
I don't know when I'll see your face again
I know it's what I got to do
And I love her 'cause she knows it too
She surely made me understand
It takes a woman's love to make a man

It takes a woman's love to make a man
It takes a woman's love to make a man
It takes a woman's love to make a man
It takes a woman's love to make a man
To make a man, yeah
To make a man, yeah

I give her love 'cause what else can it be?
I give to her just what she wants from me
She loves me hard, she loves me right
She'll love me, love me through this lonely night

Then happiness we'll surely know
Until again it will be time to go
Oh, she loves me like nobody can
I know that woman made me understand
It takes a woman's love to make a man
I know that woman made me understand
It takes a woman's love to make a man
