| Lyrics |
You talk about crazy affairs You talk about your life as though it mattered You get attention 'cos you block the stairs Bragging about some bottles you have shattered Well I met a man who really lives He really does it all But what really matters is the heart he gives He makes your talk seem small When a man is a man He doesn't act to a plan He don't have to perform like John Wayne in some B feature flick A man is a man When he can offer his hand Not afraid of appearing insane if he can't break a brick I know a man who's a man Can't you sometimes crack a smile Do you think if you did we would run and tell I know one day your big villian style Will collapse as they turn the key in the door of your cell I know a man who was once like you But he opened his heart No one is really bad right through He's just another part When a man is a man And he drinks 'til he's canned He can drop to the floor, he can weep, we won't ask the price A man is a man He can fall he can stand We won't love him more if he keeps his soul on the ice I know a man who's a man Every one of us is looking for fame He's a looker He's a dresser He's a genius under pressure I know a man who could tighten your rein He's a father He's a brother He's a rock He's a lover He's a man he's a man He doesn't act to a plan He don't have to get hitched to a train in some muscle beach trick A man is a man When he can offer his hand Not afraid of apprearing insane if he can't break a brick Be a man who's a man
