She Took It Like A Man

I hated like the devil

To tell her we were through

I was sure it would break her heart

Tear her world in twoShe is such a fragile thing

Lord, I hate to make her cry

So I broke it to her gently

When I told her goodbyeShe cussed me like a sailor

Kicked a hole through the kitchen wall

She threw a fit and threw the phone

Half-way down the hallShe said, "I'll be down at the bar"

Then I heard the front door slam

I guess all in all

She took it like a manI was thinking she'd reach out to me

And beg me not to go

Or run straight to her momma

'Cause I'd hurt her soThought she'd be devastated

I had a tender moment plan

I didn't think that she could take it

But she took it like a manShe cussed me like a sailor

Kicked a hole through the kitchen wall

She threw a fit and threw the phone

Half-way down the hallShe said, "I'll be down at the bar"

Then I heard the front door slam

I guess all in all

She took it like a man

I guess all in all

She took it like a man
