(ellas mcdaniel) 1955

Now when i was a little boy,
At the age of five,
I had somethin’ in my pocket,
Keep a lot of folks alive.

Now i’m a man,
Made twenty-one,
You know baby,
We can have a lot of fun.

I’m a man,
I spell m-a-n…man.

All you pretty women,
Stand in line,
I can make love to you baby,
In an hour’s time.

I’m a man,
I spell m-a-n…man.

I goin’ back down,
To kansas to
Bring back the second cousin,
Little john the conqueroo.

I’m a man,
I spell m-a-n…man.

The line i shoot,
Will never miss,
The way i make love to ’em,
They can’t resist.

I’m a man,
I spell m-a-n…man.
