Where’s the Show/Let Me Be a Man

Explain again to me Lord when I'm here

I don't know, I don't know

The setting for the stage is still not clear

Where's the show, where's the show?

Let it begin, let it begin, I'm born, can you use me?

What would you have me to do Lord

Shall I sing them a song?

I could tell them all about you, Lord

I could write of the loves I have known

I'll work in their cotton and cornfields

I promise to do all I can

I'll laugh and I'll cry

I'll live and I'll die

Please, Lord, let me be a man

Dear Lord, let me be a man

And I'll give it all that I can

If I'm needed in this distant land

Please, Lord, let me be a man

Before I begin this level of journeying

Portraying most typical man

Last minute instructions

Would surely be welcome

Please, Lord, let me hold to your hand

Dear Lord, let me be a man

And I'll give it all that I can

If I'm needed in this distant land

Please, Lord, let me be a man
