Gene Chandler

Man's Temptation

One more time to test

The willpower of me

This feeling that I hold now

Just won't let me be

This woman won't leave me alone

She's going to ruin my happy home

With a man's temptation

Well, I've got another back home

Who's the beat in my heart

I never thought that no one else

Could ever tear us apart

To each other, we had been so true

Until along comes a lover like you

With a a man's temptation

I know I've got to be strong

I've got to fight this all alone

So afraid for what I must do

I've got to hurt my woman or you

But I've got a feeling telling me

Let your heart be your guide

I don't want lose either one

Which makes it hard to decide

Though my mind continues to roam

Oh, baby, my heart, it stays at home

And controls my temptation

I'm sorry, little miss

That's the way love is

I'm sorry I can't stay

I must be on my way
