Born a Man
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When I was just a little boy , when I didn't know
My daddy put me n his knee and showed me the way to go
He said " a woman will do her best to make a fool out of you
So be a man and stand the test and see what you can do " .
I'm glad I am born a man
I'm glad I am born a man
If you got what it takes my boy
You can always choose
Work it out before it's too late my boy
Make sure you never lose
I'm glad I am born a man
I'm glad I am born a man
Born a man , etc... ad lib during break
Ev'ry woman wants her man to live and learn on her land
Where I go , baby you go
Arrangement , man and wife
I'm glad I am born a man
I'm glad I am born a man
Born a man , etc ... ad lib and fade out
