Man’s Temptation Lyrics by Mike Bloomfield, Al Kooper

Super Session

1968

You know sometimes

Another woman come into your life

You got to forsake what you have at home
You don't know what you’re doing
'Cause you love that little one that's home
And that’s what this song is all about

One more time to test the will power of me
This feeling that I hold inside just won't let me be
You know this woman just won't leave me alone
She's trying to ruin my happy home
With man's temptation

Well I've got a lover back home
She's the beat in my heart
You know I think so much so much in love
I never thought we'd drift apart
To each other we had been so true
Til along, come a woman like you
With man’s temptation

I know I’ve got to be strong
I've got to stand up, where I belong
I’m so afraid for what I must do
I've got to choose my woman or you

Well I've got a feeling telling me
Let your heart be your guide
But you know I'm so much in love with either one
Which makes it hard to decide
Though my mind, my mind continue to roam
You know my heart is stayin right here at home
To control my temptation

Sorry little miss, yes, hey, hey
That’s the way it is
Sorry I can't stay, hey, hey
You know I've got to be moving on...
I've got to get away
I've got to, I've got to
I've got to keep on moving, hey heyyyyy
I've got to stay away from them people
I've got to keep
I've got to keep everything at home right now
And leave the other stuff alone
