about

Imagine Tammi Wynette singing her motherly advice to that hurt woman in the song.
Now Imagine if that hurt woman had a good platonic man friend as well.
Most of them do.
Imagine that good friend standing beside HER while she goes through that evil relationship, wanting to say how much he loves her and that all men are not the way Tammi describes. This might sound complicated. But this happens every day in the world.
Good men often confuse words like HONOR when it comes to their hearts wants and needs.

lyrics

I know in many ways i am not perfect
but i know how to love and understand
So, because he drowns you deep in his failures
don't write us all off for being just men
he hurt you more than you ever could fathom
but he's magic with a smile that shines so bright
(so it) Seems you trust the codes of the mountain
just because these ways are old it doesn't make them right

Are you gonna go stand by your man?
Or will you walk away from him.
10,000 times you let him back in
And every time you get to breathe he fails again

Are you gonna go stand by your man
or will you stand by me instead?
10,000 ways I'd treat you right
you'll never have to suffer for the rest of your life.

you know all the sides of love and war
its been too many years you stood sentry at home
just when you thought you've heard it all before
he finds another way to leave you alone

he's heartless when he drags you through the dirt
and your mother tells you the old sage advice
but your friends see i am a straighter shooter
and believe you'd never have to cry for me twice.
