The Woman Makes The Man Lyrics - Lady Antebellum

Im all busted aces and empty pockets 

An arrow shot straight through a locket 

In this cheap hotel room on this lonesome highway 

Everything I own in this tattered old suitcase 

But you know I havent always been this way 

(Chorus) 

I used to be a hero, and a lover 

She brought out the best in me 

But now Im just lonesome with a broken heart 

Half the man I used to be 

It took losing her, for me to finally understand 

That the woman really makes the man

She was like an angel 

Sweet as Tubelo Honey 

Every move she made was right on the money 

But I took her for granted 

Cause I thought I always hold her 

And she bought into everyone line that I sold her 

Oh but I threw it all away 

Oh why did I throw it all away? 

I used to be a hero, and a lover 

She brought out the best in me 

But now Im just lonesome with a broken heart 

Half the man I used to be 

It took losing her for me to finally understand 

That the woman really makes the man 

Well this face staring back at me in this mirror 

Aint the face I wanna see 

Gotta figure out how to get back 

To who I used to be 

Oh yeah, oh 

I used to be a hero, and a lover 

She brought out the best in me 

But now Im just lonesome with a broken heart 

Half the man I used to be 

It took losing her for me, to finally understand 

That the woman really makes the man 

Yes A woman really makes a man
