Clothes Don't Make a Man

Angie Stone

Just don't want a guy if he can't tie a tie (oh no)
He'll never be my man if he can't wear the pants (that's right)
What good is that, if I can't get the shirt off his back (come on)
Now what I need with you, if I can walk in your shoes (hold up)
Head to toe, that's a good look for you
But would you be a good look for me?

(Tell me your name, not your brand)
Clothes don't make a man
(He looking good, understand)
But they don't make a man
(What about his church clothes?)
(Have you seen him in his work clothes? What about those?)
(Where are those? No, clothes they don't make a man)

Something that I need, would you roll off to sleep? (come on)
If I'm in need of help, can you tighten your belt (that's right)
Help me with the tax, if you're hanging your hat
Under the bed if you hittin' the spot
You can leave your shoes and socks
Head to toe, that's a good look for you
But would you be a good look for me?

(Tell me your name, not your brand)
Clothes don't make a man
(He looking good, understand)
But they don't make a man
(What about his church clothes?)
(Have you seen him in his work clothes? What about those?)
(Where are those? No, clothes they don't make a man)

What about his church clothes?
Have you seen him in his work clothes?
Ohh...ooohh...yeah
I don't need your sinning man, I don't need a pretty man
What about the fabric, any dude could be a manikin
Are you real, are you tailored to fit me for real?

(Tell me your name, not your brand)
Clothes don't make a man
(He looking good, understand)
(What about his church clothes?)
(Have you seen him in his work clothes? What about those?)
(Where are those? No, clothes they don't make a man)
