I’m a Man Songtext
von Zachary Kibbee

When I was a boy
My mamma, she said to me
"Son, you better leave 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 come and off I'm walking out of the door


(Oh oh-oh-oh)
'Cause I′m a man, that′s what I am
(Oh oh-oh-oh)
Yes, I'm a man, that′s what I am sayin'
(Oh oh-oh-oh)
′Cause I'm a man, that′s what I am
Don't believe it, I know that you can't understand

"You got a good head, you better use it, boy
You gotta be smart if you wanna get 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"

(Oh oh-oh-oh)
′Cause I'm a man, that′s what I am
(Oh oh-oh-oh)
Yes, I'm a man, that′s what I am sayin'
(Oh oh-oh-oh)
'Cause I′m a man, that′s what I am
Don't believe it, I know that you can′t understand

The time is come and off I'm walking out of the door


(Oh oh-oh-oh)
′Cause I'm a man, that′s what I am
(Oh oh-oh-oh)
Yes, I'm a man, that's what I am sayin′
(Oh oh-oh-oh)
′Cause I'm a man, that′s what I am
Don't believe it, I know that you can′t understand

(Oh oh-oh-oh)
'Cause I′m a man, that's what I am
(Oh oh-oh-oh)
Yes, I'm a man, that′s what I am sayin′
(Oh oh-oh-oh)
'Cause I′m a man, that's what I am
Don′t believe it, I know that you can't understand
