Man

by Rosie Tucker

on Lowlight (2015)

[Verse]
Whose fault is it if I didn't say no
If I let him to his damndest on me

Who takes blame when I wake up in the wreckage
Of shaking hands and knees

[Chorus]
Lord, don't send me a daughter
I can't teach her how to be strong
Is it breaking down in the dark
Getting mad
Or moving on?

[Verse]
Whose fault is it if they holler in the streets
And I can't even reply

‘Cause I'm feelin' small and today's already heavy
And I'm not lookin' for a fight

[Chorus]
Lord, don't send me a daughter
I can't teach her how to be strong
Is it breaking down in the dark
Getting mad
Or moving on?

[Bridge]
Man, oh man
Look what you've done
Man, oh man
Look what you've done
Man, oh man
Look what you've done

Well, what kind of man just uses someone?
And throws them away

[Chorus]
Lord, don't send me a daughter
I can't teach her how to be strong
While I'm breaking down in the dark
Getting mad
And trying to move on

[Chorus 2]
Lord, don't send me a girl
I can only hold her for so long
‘Fore she's broken down in the dark
Gets mad
And learns to move on
