Bonnie Raitt Picture
Bonnie Raitt, (born November 8, 1949) is an American blues/R&B singer, songwriter, and guitarist who was born in Burbank, California, the daughter of Broadway musical star John Raitt. Raitt began playing guitar at an early age, something not a lot of her high school girlfriends did. Later she would become famous for her bottleneck-style guitar playing. "I had played a little at school and at camp," she later recalled in a July 2002 interview. "My parents would drag me out to perform for my family, like all parents do, but it was a hobby—nothing more...I think people must wonder how a white girl like me became a blues guitarist.

Love Me Like a Man Lyrics

Bonnie Raitt

The men that Ive been seeing
Well they got their soul up on a shelf
You know they could never love me
Cuz they cant even love themselves
But I want someone to love me
Baby I want one to understand
Wont put himself above me
Who can love me like a man
I never seen such losers
Even though I tried
Find a mind to take me home instead of
Taking me for a ride
Baby, I use someone to care
Believe it when I tell you darlin
You can love me like a man
Oh they want me to rock them
Like my back aint got no bone
I want a man whose gonna rock me
Like my backbone was his own
Baby, I want to wait until you can
Believe it when I tell you darlin
You can love me like a man
Come home sad and lonely
Feel like I wanna cry
Come over here and hold me baby
And dont ever ask the reason why
I said i, I want a lover
Wont have to work to understand
Dont put yourself above me baby
Love me like a man
