I had my golf clubs on my shoulder when you saw me first today
Wearing my old army sweater that you thought you'd threw away
When you saw I had a six-pack, you just hung your head in sight
Messed it up, when you saw I had a six-pack, I thought you were gonna cry
Your man loves you, honey I don't know what else to say
Your man loves you, honey But you can't change my way
Now before you say you're angry, you remember what I did
Went to church with you last Sunday, took your mama and the kids
Sat right up and heard the preaching, even wore my Sunday tie
I ain't much on organ music, five-string banjo's more my style
But your man loves you, honey I don't know what else to say
But your man loves you, honey But you can't change my way
It's hard for me to sing a song about you not changing me as much as you've changed me
Oh, you should have had a knight in armor and a castle fair
Not some restless cowboy with faded boots and shaggy hair
I can't make it big without you, and you know that it's true
Keep me around for laughs, I've been good for one or two
Your man loves you, honey I don't know what else to say
Your man loves you, honey But you sure changed my way
