This song goes out to everybody
  Who had somebody and you knew they was right
  But some kind of way, you messed up anyhow
    I remember when we first met
  You said you wanted everything
  I tried my best to make it happen but
  What you said you didn't mean
  Now the tables turned
  You feel like your bridge is burned
  I just tried to be a man babe
  You know you did the wrong thing girl
  You don't understand me
  I don't think you heard me
  (I realized, I can't take the pain)
  You know you hurt me bad baby
  (But now I see, and now I know)
  Now I see you really wasn't ready for me
    You can't handle a true man
  One who really, really wants to be
  You can't handle a true man
  Girl I give you my cream and everything
  You can't handle a true man
  One who really wants you to understand
  You can't handle a true man
  Said I gave you all my lovin' babe, anytime you want it babe
    I tried my best to give you right girl
  But you act like you don't like it
  Now I see that we weren't meant to be
  Even though I thought that you were made for me
  Here I go again, it feels like a lonely sin, that I made
  How ya just let me go baby
  And it truly, really hurts so bad
  And why you wanna make me so sad?
  (I realized, I can't take the pain)
  Ooh why did ya hurt me so bad?
  (But now I see, and now I know)
  And now I know you wasn't ready baby you can't handle it
    You can't handle a true man
  One who really, really wants to be
  You can't handle a true man
  Girl I give you my cream and everythin
  You can't handle a true man
  One who really wants you to understand
  You can't handle a true man
  Said I gave you all my lovin' babe, anytime you want it babe
    Yeah, know when I first saw you girl
  I truly thought you were the one for me
  And one day you finally made me see baby
    Too bad you couldn't handle
  All that I had in store
  Messed it up the first time and now you want some more
  Wanting what you like and you ruined my life
  And now you wanna make it right
    You can't handle a true man
  One who really, really wants to be
  You can't handle a true man
  Girl I give you my cream and everything
  You can't handle a true man
  One who really wants you to understand
  You can't handle a true man
  Said I gave you all my lovin' babe, anytime you want it babe
    I got a true love baby, I need a true love
  Someone treat me right
  I don't wanna fuss and fight
  Give me true love baby, I need a true love
  You can't handle a true man
    I got a true love baby, I need a true love
  Someone treat me right
  I don't wanna fuss and fight
  Give me true love baby, I need a true love
  You can't handle a true man
    You can't handle a true man
  One who really, really wants to be
  You can't handle a true man
  Girl I give you my cream and everything
  You can't handle a true man
  One who really wants you to understand
  You can't handle a true man
  Said I gave you all my lovin' babe, anytime you want it babe
