Real Man - Behani/Ne-Yo

Lyrics by：Rebekah Behbahani/Shaffer Chimere Smith/Scott Storch

Composed by：Rebekah Behbahani/Shaffer Chimere Smith/Scott Storch

I need a man

I need a real man

Say what he means

Mean what he say

Keep it so real man

And he don't play

No he don't play bout me

For the real man

Love me for real man

Love me for real

What's money to a man when he got that

Spend a bag on a bag to apologise

When all he had to do was a apologise

Can't solve every problem with a dollar

I am not that

That can never be me

Need a man that really wants to please me

Do it cause he love me

Not because it's easy

I am not impressed by the diamonds on your chest

If underneath there ain't no heart

Said I need passion not attention

But your worth don't tell me who you are

Understand

Understand

I need a man

I need a real man

Say what he means

Mean what he say

Keep it so real man

And he don't play

No he don't play bout me

For real man

Love me for real man

Love me for real yeah

Love me for real

Show me something real

Show me something real

Not just something I can spend

But something I can feel

Respect my intellect

Not just my sex appeal

Do that and maybe we can chill

Don't go looking for perfection

Baby ain't no truth in this

No more knights in shining armor

Now it's shiny necks and wrists

But beneath these shiny diamonds

You will surely find a heart

My jewelry selection and my affection are both true works of art

What I mean is Imma treat you like

You deserve to be treated

You don't ever have to ask if you need it it's there

Notice how I said need

Baby I'mma provide so that we can proceed

Hear me when I talk and Imma listen when you speak

Loving on your intellect as well as the booty

Makin' sure that we never lose

Run the verse back if you don't know who to choose

I need a man

I need a real man

Say what he means

Mean what he say

Keep it so real man

And he don't play

No he don't play bout me for real man

Love me for real man

Love me for real

Love me for real

Show me something real

Show me something real

Not just something I can spend

But something I can feel

Respect my intellect not just my sex appeal

Do that and maybe we can chill

I I

I need a real man

I I

I need a real man

I I

I need a real man

Yeah
