Lyrics

I’m a Man

[Verse 1]

Will you pretty women

Stand in line?

Make love to you, baby

In an hour's time

[Chorus]

Now I'm a man

I spell M-A-N

[Verse 2]

Oh, line I shoot

Will never miss

Make love to you, baby

You can't resist

[Chorus]

Now I'm a man

I spell M-A-N

Man

[Verse 3]

Going back down

To Kansas to

Bring back a little girl

Just like you

[Chorus]

Now I'm a man

I spell M-A-N

Man
