Angie Stone – Clothes Don't Make A Man lyrics
[Verse 1:]
Just don’t want a guy if he can’t tie a tie (oh no)
He’ll never be my man if he can't wear the pants (that’s right)
What good is that, if I can't get the shirt off his back (come on)
And what I need with you, if I can walk in his shoes
Head to toe, that’s a good look for you
But would you be a good look for me
[Chorus:]
(Tell me your name, not your brand)
Clothes don’t make a man
(He looking good, understand)
But they don’t make a man
(What about his church clothes?)
(Have you seen him in his work clothes? What about those?)
(Where are those? No, clothes they don’t make a man)
[Verse 2:]
Something that I need, would you roll off to sleep?
If I’m in need of help, can you tighten your belt (that’s right)
Help me with the tax, if you’re hanging your hat
On the bed if you hit the spot
You can leave your shoes and socks
Head to toe, that’s a good look for you
But would you be a good look for me
[Chorus]
[Verse 3:]
What about his church clothes
Have you seen him in his work clothes?
Ohh.ooohh...yeah
I don’t need your sinning man, I don’t need a pretty man
What about the fabric, any dude could be a manikin
Are you real, are you tailored to fit me for real?
[Chorus]
Just don’t want a guy if he can’t tie a tie (oh no)
He’ll never be my man if he can't wear the pants (that’s right)
What good is that, if I can't get the shirt off his back (come on)
And what I need with you, if I can walk in his shoes
Head to toe, that’s a good look for you
But would you be a good look for me
[Chorus:]
(Tell me your name, not your brand)
Clothes don’t make a man
(He looking good, understand)
But they don’t make a man
(What about his church clothes?)
(Have you seen him in his work clothes? What about those?)
(Where are those? No, clothes they don’t make a man)
[Verse 2:]
Something that I need, would you roll off to sleep?
If I’m in need of help, can you tighten your belt (that’s right)
Help me with the tax, if you’re hanging your hat
On the bed if you hit the spot
You can leave your shoes and socks
Head to toe, that’s a good look for you
But would you be a good look for me
[Chorus]
[Verse 3:]
What about his church clothes
Have you seen him in his work clothes?
Ohh.ooohh...yeah
I don’t need your sinning man, I don’t need a pretty man
What about the fabric, any dude could be a manikin
Are you real, are you tailored to fit me for real?
