Lyrics
I've been trying
Lord knows that I've been trying
To understand why
Can't I be your only man
You say you love me
So sincere
That I believe you love me
Yet I can't understand why
Can't I be your only man
Day after day
You treat me any old way
I wanna go but my heart says no
You act so strange
But my love still remains
It says keep on trying boy
She's gonna change
I've been trying
Lord knows that I've been trying
To understand why
Can't I be your only man
Keep on trying
Oooh-ooh-ooh
Keep on trying
Oooh-ooh-ooh
Keep on trying
Oooh-ooh-ooh
