Man Can Only Stand Just So Much Pain Songtext
von Tony Joe White

A leaf can cling to a tree for just so long
A cloud can only hold just so much rain
Even mountains have been known to crumble
And a man can only stand just so much pain
A man′s love can be his greatest weakness wow aint it true
And no way a man can be strong
When he loves a woman like I love you oh


A night can only last just so many hours
Nothing no nothing can hold back the dawn
So I'm gonna try to make it till morning
But a man can only stand a hurt just so long

A man′s love can be his greatest weakness wow aint it true
And no way a man can be strong
When he loves a woman like I love you oh
Even mountains have been known to crumble
And a man can only stand a hurt so much pain
Wow a man can only stand just so much pain
Wow a man can only stand just so much pain yes he can
I said a man can only stand just so much pain
Wow a man can only stand just so much pain
A man can only stand just so much pain
