I’m A Man (Live at Carnegie Hall)

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1: Peter Cetera]

Well my Daddy said I'm messy 'bout the whiskers on my chin

Never had no problems 'cause I've always paid the rent

I got no time for loving 'cause my time is all used up

I spend my time creating for some groovy kinds of love

[Chorus: All]

I'm a man, yes I am

And I can't help but love you so

I'm a man, yes I am

And I can't help but love you so

[Verse 2: Terry Kath]

If I had my choice of matter, I'd rather be content

Being closer to the chatter, showing where your mind is at

While relating to each other, how strong your love could be

'Cept for only sometimes groovy chicks you see

[Chorus: All]

I'm a man, yes I am

And I can't help but love you so

I'm a man, yes I am

And I can't help but love you so

[Verse 3: Robert Lamm]

I've got to keep my image, while I'm standing on the floor

If I drop upon my knees, it's just to keep them on my nose

You think that I'm not human, and my heart is made of stone

But I've never had no problems, and my body's pretty strong

[Chorus: All]

I'm a man, yes I am

And I can't help but love you so

I'm a man, yes I am

And I can't help but love you so

[Instrumental bridge]

[Verse 4: Terry Kath]

If I had my choice of matter, I would rather be content

All engrossed in mental chatter, showin' where your mind is at

While relating to each other, how good your love can be

Resisting only some times groovy chicks you see

[Chorus: All]

I'm a man, yes I am

And I can't help but love you so

I'm a man, yes I am

And I can't help but love you so

[Verse 5: Robert Lamm]

I've got to keep my image, while I'm standing on the floor

If I drop upon my knees, it's just to keep them on my nose

You think that I'm not human, and my heart is made of stone

But I've never had no problems, and my body's pretty strong

[Chorus: All]

I'm a man, yes I am

And I can't help but love you so

Man, yes I am

And I can't help but love you so

Man, yes I am

And I can't help but love you so

Man, yes I am

And I can't help but love you so
