Gimme Back My Man

Gimme back my man
Gimme back my man
Gimme back my man
Gimme back my man
Take this horseshoe
It can’t do what my man can do
Not looking maybe
but it ain’t doin' a thing for me
You can have this four leaf clover
It can’t do a good job of holding me
Take all these lucky charms
I’d rather be in my man’s arms
Lucky charms I don’t need
They don’t do a thing for me
And I know without a doubt
It’s my man’s love I can’t do without
So
Gimme back my man
Gimme back my man
Gimme back my man
Just gotta have my man
I went to the fortune teller
To have my fortune read
She took my hand in hers
And this is what she said
«Give up your man»
As she began to read my palm
«You can find yourself a better one
If you take these lucky charms»
Oh what a fool I was to give that man away
I hope it’s not too late
To correct the mistake I made
But sure as the sun rises in the east and
the sun sets in the west
I declare ain’t nowhere
have I found a better man
yeah
'Cause lucky charms is a fantasy
Can’t be living in a world of make believe
Getting all built up for a big let down
Waitin' for my love to roll all around
Life’s too short to believe in those things
I’d rather have mine while all the things
So
Gimme back my man
Gimme back my man, listen to me
Gimme back my man yeah
Just gotta have my man
You can have this old rabbit’s foot
I never did like, like the way it looked
And you can even have the penny in the case
'Cause it will never ever take my man’s place
'Cause lucky charms are a fantasy
They don’t mean a thing to me
And I know without a doubt
It’s my man’s love I can’t do without
So
Gimme back my man hey yeah
Gimme back my man mmh
Gimme back my man, yeah
Just gotta have my man
Give him back
Need him back
Yes I do
Want him back hey yeah
Ooh ooh yeah
Gimme gimme gimme back
