The correct form is 'was'. 'Were' is in the plural and only one person is represented by the statement, making it incorrect.

If you are talking about a possible or probable past then the correct form is "If I was your man..."

E.g. "If I was your man, why didn't you tell me?" [conditional past]

If you are talking about a possibility or imaginary situation in the future then the correct form is "If I were your man..."

E.g.

"If I were your man, I would bring you roses every day." (I'm not your man, but if I were...) [possible future]

"If I were a woman..." (I'm not a woman, but if I were...) [imaginary / impossible future]
