She Took It Like a Man lyrics

I hated like the devil To tell her we were through I was sure it would break her heart Tear her world in two She is such a fragile thing Lord, I hate to make her cry So I broke it to her gently When I told her goodbye She cussed me like a sailor Kicked a hole through the kitchen wall She threw a fit and threw the phone Half-way down the hall She said"I'll be down at the bar" Then I heard the front door slam I guess all in all She took it like a man I was thinking she'd reach out to me And beg me not to go Or run straight to her momma's 'Cause I'd hurt her so Thought she'd be devastated I had a tender moment plan I didn't think that she could take it But she took it like a man
