A man can give it, buddy, he sure can't take it
A man can give it, buddy, he sure can't take it
A man can give it y'all, but he sure can't take it
A man can give it, but he sure can't take it
If you can't stand the heat of the cook
Maybe you've got to stay out of the kitchen
Man wants to do what he wants to do
He wanna have his cake and eat it too
A man wants to stay out all night
But if his woman go out and stay 'til after 12
He wanna start a damn fight, see
A man can give it, buddy, he sure can't take it
A man can give it, but he sure can't take it
If you can't stand the heat of the cook
You've got to stay out of the kitchen
A man wants to stay out all night long
Come home with lipstick on his collar
And his underclothes on his own
Well, get the shoes on the other foot
We start to raise a lot of sand
Don't let her come home late one night with a pantyhose in her hand
He can give it, buddy, he sure can't take it
A man can give it, but he sure can't take it
If you can't stand the heat of the cook
Maybe you've got to stay out of the kitchen
A man is weak, but he tries to be strong
He can't take it when he thinks his woman's doing him wrong
A man wants a wife and a part-time lover
But if she finds somebody else, that's a course of another color
A man can give it, buddy, he sure can't take it
A man can give it, but he sure can't take it
If you can't set the heat of the cook
Maybe you've got to stay out of the kitchen
A man can give it, buddy, he sure can't take it
A man can give it, buddy, he sure can't take it
A man can give it, y'all, but he sure can't take it
A man can give it, he sure can't take it
If you can't the heat of the cook
You've got to stay out the kitchen
A man can give it, he sure can't take it
A man can give it, y'all, but he sure can't take it
