Classic Country Lyrics: "Stand By Your Man" von Tammy Wynette

Tammy Wynette schrieb diesen Welthit gemeinsam
mit ihrem Produzenten Billy Sherrill. Der Song
wurde zu ihrem Markenzeichen, brachte ihr aber
auch Kritik ein: Sie würde die Frau zu sehr im
Klischée präsentieren, hiess es. Dabei war Tammy
Wynette eine toughe Frau, die einiges durchmachen
musste und dies auch nicht verschwieg.

Sometimes it's hard to be a woman
Giving all your love to just one man
You'll have bad times
And he'll have good times
Doin things that you don't understand
But if you love him 
You'll forgive him
Even though he's hard to understand
And if you love him
Oh, be proud of him 
Cause after all he's just a man

Stand by your man 
Give him two arms to cling to 
And something warm to come to 
when nights are cold and lonely

Stand by your man
And show the world you love him 
Keep giving all the love you can
Stand by your man

Stand by your man
And show the world you love him 
Keep giving all the love you can
Stand by your man
