If Your Kisses Can't Hold The Man You Love Lyrics - Frustration Plantation - Rasputina

Every time that I hear a woman cry 'cause her man has left her flat 

I just feel like saying, "Don't be such a fool, you fool" 

Better dry your eyes, can't you realize you gain nothing by that? 

Well, that's no way to keep his heart warm, baby 

When his love grows cool 

What's the use in sighing? What's the use in crying? 

If he's wandered off the track 

'Cause if your kisses won't hold the man you love 

Then your tears won't bring him back, no 

You might as well be cheerful, there's no use being tearful 

If he's given you the sack 

'Cause if your kisses won't hold the man you love 

Then your tears won't bring him back 

Now, listen, if sweet sugar kissin' isn't gonna make him come home 

Tell me, how do ya hope to keep him to ya with tears instead of song 

Just be a normal fella, come on, say, "What the hell-a" 

Get his clothes and help him to pack 

'Cause if your kisses won't hold the man you love 

Then your tears won't bring him back 

Love is like home cooking, good and wholesome 

But all men need some mutton on the outside now and then 

If you find your boy is cheating, do the same, old dear 

He's only giving you the chance that you've been waiting for for years 

My goodness! Tears won't get you anything, just a shiny red nose 

Go on, paint up, powder up, put on your swellest clothes 

Men, go and get 'em by the score, neglected girls shouldn't worry 

That's what God made sailors for 

Don't cry for him or chase him, just go out and replace him 

With some good looking Tom, Dick or Jack 

'Cause if your kisses won't hold the man you love 

Then your tears won't bring him back 

If your kisses won't hold the man you love 

Then your tears won't bring him back
