The mango kid

All you pretty ladies pass me by and turn you heads
But when I get on stage you can't keep you eyes off me
I say too little too late, I'm walking on
You find another pretty boy to turn you on
I got my name on the line
My eyes on the prize
Let me tell you who I am
You wanna know my name?
I am the Mango Kid
All you fellas look me up and down and cop my style
But when I see you at the club you can't look me in the eye
It's ok if you wanna look and take take take
Just make sure you credit the kid who showed you how to shake
I got my name on the line
My eyes on the prize
Let me tell you who I am
You wanna know my name?
I am the Mango Kid
You can call me the Mango Kid but your girl calls me baby
And I've been a rock prodigy since the age of twenty
What comes outta this mouth ain't called boastin' it's truthin'
