I never thought too much about her leavin'
I'd find someone there was no doubt
But this time the feelin' is strange and different
Since she's been gone there's one thing I found out

Chorus:
It takes a mighty man to live with lonesome
Some big men might live with misery
But there's one thing I know, for sure it's certain
It's for sure it's gonna take a lot bigger man than me

I've never suffered much in the hurtin' line
I've always been as good as any man
But show me who can lose in love and like it
And I'll be the first to proudly shake his hand

Chorus

It's for sure it's gonna take a lot bigger man than me
