這首由美國著名鄉村女歌手 Tammy Wynette演唱的《Stand By Your Man》，仿佛每個音節都隱含著淚水。歌中唱道，不管你的男人如何的錯待了你，別忘記，他畢竟隻是個普通的男人。如果你愛他，就要原諒他，等他迷途知返，站在他身邊，給他支持、給他愛。換句話說，這隻是表達‘我愛你’的另外一種方式而已。這幾乎是天下所有曾經受到感情創傷的女性都會認同的心聲。
孤獨、離異、悲歡離合是 Tammy Wynette歌曲中的經典主題，從某種意義上說，這首歌曲似乎就是她的自傳體敘事歌曲。
Stand by your man.
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
Doin' 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 show 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.
