That's What I Like About You
Trisha Yearwood · Trisha Yearwood [MCA]
I like a man who can live without me too
That's what I like about you
I like a man who will lay down beside me
I like a man who will stand up to me too
That's what I like about you
I don't want a man to be my twin
Under my thumb, under my skin
Don't want a man like a shadow on the ground
With nothin' else to do but follow me around
I like a man who will cry on my shoulder
Who don't mind if I cry sometimes too
That's what I like about you
I like a man who can make it happen
Who can get me laughin' when my hole life breaks in two
That's what I like about you
You can be soft honey, you can be strong
Maybe that's the reason we get along
Everything you do you do just right
You're tender in love, tought in a fight
I like a man who will lay down beside me
Stand up to me, cry on my shoulder, crazy about me
Can live with out me too
That's what I like about
Can't live my life without
That's what I like about you
