Doing The Best I Can

Ay

Doing the best I can

Doing the best I can

I'm only a man

Darling

My life has been empty

Since you went away

I'm feeling so very, very lonely

I just trip from day to day

I'm doing the best I can

Trying to get over

Doing the best I can, oh

I'm brokenhearted

It's my fault

Treated you wrong

So many times

I just wanna talk

I'm just a man

Doing the best I can

Yeah

Now darling

Doing the best I can

Each and every day

So many times

I know you gone away

I said I know you gone away

I miss you each and every day

Every, every, every, every day, I just

I get lonely

Night after night

Wonder if I'm doing

What's wrong or if I'm doing what's right

But I'm only a man, baby

Baby I'm only a man

I'm for real

And I'm doing the best that I can (I'm for real)

(I'm for real)

Now baby (I'm for real)

Now baby (I'm for real)

Yeah (I'm for real) hey, hey

I sit down and I wonder (I'm for real)

What and who and where (I'm for real)

What if I've been wrong? (I'm for real)

I wonder who'd care (I'm for real)

Tell me now (I'm for real)

Is it right for me to suffer? (I'm for real)

Yeah I stand (I'm for real)

With my head hangin' low (I'm for real)

Wondering which way to turn (I'm for real)

I don't know just where to go (I'm for real)

How long can I keep it up? (I'm for real)

Tell me, tell me (I'm for real)

How long, how long? (I'm for real)

I need it (I'm for real)

My darling, I'm for real (I'm for real)

(I'm for real)

(I'm for real)

(I'm for real)

(I'm for real)

I'm for real, baby (I'm for real)

But I want you to know (I'm for real)

I miss you baby

Darling I miss you so (I'm for real)

I miss you, darling (I'm for real)

(I'm for real)

(I'm for real)

I miss you, darling

How long can I keep it up? (I'm for real)

Night after night (I'm for real)

Don't know whether it's wrong or right (I'm for real)

But here I stand baby (I'm for real)

With my head hangin' so low (I'm for real)

Here I stand, baby

Baby do you know?

Do you know?

I remember when you were here with me

I remember when you were here

I remember when you were here with me

I remember me and Mrs. Jones

I remember me and Mrs. Jones

How we had a thing goin' on

Oh we were carryin' on

We were carryin' on

I know deep down inside I was wrong

I want you to help me

Whoo

Help me, help me

Help me darling, show me the way

Come to you one more time

Show me the way

I-I-I-I wanna know a way

I'm standing here with my head hanging low

Oh I'm standing here

I said I'm, I'm standing here

I'm standing here, me and Mrs. Jones

I'm standing here

I know we were wrong, I just want some help

Woo, hoo!

Whoo whoo

Oh, baby

Now can you make another friend?

Can you, can you make another?

Can you make another?

Oh, darling

Do you know what it means to have someone need you?

I want you

Oh you cheated on me, you should not have left me here

Should not have left me here

Whoo whoo

Makes me wanna cry

I'm so lonely, but baby I'm just a man

Doing the best I can

I, I, I'm just a man

I'm just a man

I'm just a man
