I'm 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 a boy, my mama, she said to me
Son, you better lead yourself out of this misery
I'm gonna help you, just as best as I can
But there's only so much I can do to turn a boy to a man
You better be tough, and strong, keep your belly full
You better be true and decent with a gentle soul
You better believe that you're gonna get outta this town
You better believe that no one can push you around
The time is coming for walking out the door
(Wo-o-o-oah)
Cause I'm a man, that's what I am
(Wo-o-o-oah)
Yes I'm a man, that's where I stand
(Wo-o-o-oah)
Cause I'm a man, that's what I am
Oh baby, I know that you can understand
You got a good head, you better use it boy
You gotta be smart if you wanna be somewhere in this world
Cause I'm gonna help you, just as best as I can
But there's only so much I can do to turn a boy to a man
(Wo-o-o-oah)
Cause I'm a man, that's what I am
(Wo-o-o-oah)
Yes I'm a man, that's where I stand
(Wo-o-o-oah)
Cause I'm a man, that's what I am
Oh baby, I know that you can understand
The time is coming for walking out the door
(Wo-o-o-oah)
Cause I'm a man, that's what I am
(Wo-o-o-oah)
Yes I'm a man, that's where I stand
(Wo-o-o-oah)
Cause I'm a man, that's what I am
Oh baby, I know that you can understand
[Chorus]
(Wo-o-o-oah)
Cause I'm a man, that's what I am
(Wo-o-o-oah)
Yes I'm a man, that's where I stand
(Wo-o-o-oah)
Cause I'm a man, that's what I am
Oh baby, I know that you can understand
