What's a Man to Do

Vince Gill

Before the tears I've cried
Have even dried, she'll be with him
They'll look in each other's eyes
And with her lips, still warm with lies, she'll kiss him

And though she knows she's wrong
She just keeps on keepin' me hangin' on

Tell me, what's a man to do
When the one he's promised to finds somebody new
Or should I just stand by, watch the love I've lived for die?
Lord, I wish I knew, tell me, what's a man to do?

And maybe I'll make a stand
Or just wash my hands off her forever
But I've never been alone
Except for here at home when they're together

And though I know it's wrong
I let her go on, just keepin' me hangin' on

Tell me, what's a man to do
When the one he's promised to finds somebody new
Or should I just stand by, watch the love I've lived for die?
Lord, I wish I knew, tell me, what's a man to do?
Tell me, what's a man to do?
