Oh yeah, yeah

Oh yes

Everything gonna be alright

Oh yeah, yeah

Now when I was a young boy

At the age of five

My mother said I'll be

The greatest man alive

And now I'm a man

I'm over twenty-one

You better believe me, baby

And I'll say, we can have lots of fun

I'm a man

Huh huh huh huh huh

A man

Oh yeah

Oh yeah (oh yeah)

Oh yeah

The line I shoot

Will never miss

And when I make love to you baby

You just can't resist

Ooh, ain't that man

Spelled M

A child

N

No B

O child

Y

That spell mannish boy

I'm a man

A man

I'm a man

I'm a man

I sittin' on the outside

Just me and my mate

I made the move

Come up two hours late

Ain't that a man

No B

O child

Y

That spell mannish boy

I'm a man

I'm a man

I'm a full grown man, baby

Oh yeah, oh yeah

Oh yeah, oh yeah

All you pretty women

Stand in line

I make love with you baby

In an hour's time

I'm a man

I'm a man

Oh yeah (oh yeah)

Oh yeah (oh yeah)
