The song Stand by your Man was created in 1968 by Tammy Wynette, an American country music singer, actress and script-writer who was born as Virginia Wynette Pugh in 1942, in Mississippi.
This song expresses the patience and indulgence that any woman in love should exhibit in order to put up with and stand by the man she loves, even though he's hard to understand for a woman...
In the year of its release, Stand By Your Man soared to the top of the charts in the US and became an international hit song. Tammy Wynette died in 1998 in Tennessee, at the age of 55.
Sometimes it's hard to be a woman
Giving all your love to just one man
You'll have bad times
And he'll have good times
Doing things that you don't understand
But if you love him you'll forgive him
Even though he's hard to understand
And if you love him
Oh be proud of him
'Cause after all he's just a man
Stand by your man
Give him two arms to cling to
And something warm to come to
When nights are cold and lonely
Stand by your man
And tell the world you love him
Keep giving all the love you can
Stand by your man
Stand by your man
And show the world you love him
Keep giving all the love you can
Stand by your man.
