Stand by Your Man LL COOL J (Ft. Dawn Green)

[Intro: LL Cool J]
Yeah, this one goes out to all the ladies in the house
("For alla y'all")

[Verse 1: LL Cool J]
I need you to stand by me when the chips are down and
Stick around while I defend my crown and
No sellout, the trip is too rough and
Although your skin is soft, I need your mind to be tough
And I might seem rough but life is much rougher
To see success sometimes you gotta suffer
I need a woman that's stronger than material needs
And isn't motivated by greed
Dry my tear-drops and feelin' my pain and
Watchin' my back while I strive to maintain and
Makin' love like a medicine doctor
I knew that she was bad from the day that I clocked her

[Chorus: Dawn Green]
Stand by your, man, stand by your man
You got to stand by your baby
Stand by your, man, stand by your man
You got to stand by your man

[Verse 2: LL Cool J]
My enemies come and my fake friends talk but
You recognize game, roll your eyes and walkin'
Baby ain't no way I'll let the vultures attack you
So I'll teach you the game and tell you how to react to
The conversation, sexy vibration
Visual stimulation, slick persuasion
Times is hard, I need a woman that rolls with God
And the only man she loves is Todd
But will you be around when the raindrops fallin'
Or could it be you never loved me at all and
I need a trooper, a soldier, a agent
I need someone who can roll with my arrangement
The reproducer factor and
The Queen of the Universe, not an actor and
Standin' by her man 'til the end
Not only as a lover but a friend
