Give Me a Man

Give me a man to handle a situation 
And also look cool on occasion 
Protect me from fright
And follow the light

Am I asking too much
Believe in God and have guts 
Protect me from harm
And still lay on the charm

To have lived all these years
And you must have seen dear
Through living and careers
Life is hard alone here

Am I asking too much
Believe in God and have guts 
Protect me from harm
And still lay on the charm

Have brains but don’t scare
Give love, be aware
Look at me but don’t stare
I’ll stay if you care

Am I asking too much
Believe in God and have guts 
Protect me from harm
And still lay on the charm

Pay your bills, no fanfare
Know the Man who’s upstairs 
Hold me close so I know
You won’t let me go

Am I asking too much
Believe in God and have guts 
Protect me from harm
And still lay on the charm
