Emitt Rhodes What's A Man To Do
[Verse 1]
Long I've anguished and set aside
What little's left of my foolish pride
I'm feeling empty, hollow inside
Just so numb, can't even cry
[Verse 2]
I hear the whispers, I hear the talk
I count the minutes, I watch the clock
I fear she's leaving, won't change her mind
The door is closing, I'm out of time
[Chorus]
Oh Lord, what's a man to do
When he's played the fool?
When he's played the fool
Oh Lord, when he's treated cruel
What's a man to do?
What's a man to do?
[Bridge]
Time after time, I've listened to her lie
Time after time after time after time
[Verse 2]
No easy answer, of this, I'm sure
My life will change, now I'm losing her
And though I'm scared, I'll catch my breath
There'll be no tears, I have none left
[Chorus]
Oh Lord, what's a man to do
When he's played the fool?
When he's played the fool
Oh Lord, when he's treated cruel
What's a man to do?
What's a man to do?
