Be A Man

You said before me

Your relationships were short

They never did last too long

Said every time you thought

You found pretty Mrs. Right

She turned out to be Mrs. Wrong

You always worked late

Didn't have much time to play

And she couldn't relate to you

She couldn't understand

You're a hardworking man

You need a woman like me who do

Cuz I'll say

Go and get your paper, babe

You won't hear nothing out of me

Honey ain't no time for play

See the bills got to get paid

We gotta eat everyday

And nothing in life comes for free

So go ahead and get what you can

I got your back, baby, be a man

So now you found me

Someone that you can adore

And you know I adore you too

Somebody that's strong

And got it goin' on

And won't solely depend on you

As crazy as it seems

I'ma let you do your thing boy

You are to me

See I can understand that you are just a man

Tryin' to be all that he can be

I'll say

Go and get your paper, babe

You won't hear nothing out of me

Honey ain't no time for play

See the bills got to get paid

We gotta eat everyday

And nothing in life comes for free

So go ahead and get what you can

I got your back, baby, be a man

Go and get your paper, babe

You won't hear nothing out of me

Honey ain't no time for play

See the bills got to get paid

We gotta eat everyday

And nothing in life comes for free

So go ahead and get what you can

I got your back, baby, be a man

I understand

All that it takes

Do what you can

Before it's too late

Honey I'll always

Be around

I'll pick you up

If ever you're down

Go and get your paper, babe

You won't hear nothing out of me

Honey ain't no time for play

See the bills got to get paid

We gotta eat everyday

And nothing in life comes for free

So go ahead and get what you can

I got your back, baby, be a man
