You go out with other guys
And they embrace you
Baby don't you realize
That I want date you
As much as I need you
As much as I want you
I will never crawl
'Cause a man's gotta stand tall
You just do the things you do
Just so you change me
And to see how jealous you
Can really make me
If you don't stop teasing
I'll fall down to my knees and
Beg to be alone
'Cause a man's gotta stand tall
If you're not there when I call you
I'm not gonna cry
I'm not gonna bawl
All those little games we played
Were meant to lose me
If you love me come what may
Then why confuse me?
As much as I need you
As much as I want you
I will never crawl
'Cause a man's gotta stand tall
