You're Taking Up Another Man's Place Lyrics - Etta James

You don't want me 

And you don't want nobody else to want me 

What kind of man 

What kind of man are you? 

You don't need me 

And you don't want nobody else to need me 

What kind of man 

Are you trying to send me to? 

Now if you're not gonna take care of business 

Then you ought to stop taking up space 

'Cause you're just taking up, that's all you're doing 

You just taking up another man's place 

Aw baby, you don't even 

You don't even want me to go to the store 

What kind of man 

What manner of man are you?

You run over me 

You run right over me trying to answer the telephone 

Tell me what kind of thing, what kind of thing 

What kind of thing you think you gonna put me through? 

You keep me wanting 

You keep me wanting the one thing you never gave 

Well, right here right now 

You can stop taking up another man's space 

Baby, I been faithful 

And you know I been true 

But if you're not gonna love me, baby 

Tell me what do you expect me to do? 

You keep me wanting 

You keep me wanting the one thing you never gave 

Well, right here right now 

Right here right now

You can stop taking up another man's place 

If you're not gonna love me baby 

And you know I need somebody to love me 

You're just taking up another man's place 

If you really don't need me, baby 

If you say you just don't need me 

You just, oh, stop taking up another man's place
