Lyrics Wilson Pickett

Wilson Pickett

A Man And A Half

Let me tell you baby, I sure know how to please a

woman, yes I do now

Now I can make you feel better than you've ever felt

before, yes I can now

Now when I start lovin', women hate for me to stop

A whole lot of men envy me for what I've got

Ow! I'm a man & a half; that's what I am, a man & a

half

Now look here

When I walk, the birds & the bees stop lovin' & look at

me now, look here

When I talk, the whole wide world listen to my words,

huh

I'm a man like any other man, I say without a doubt

Wow, what makes me different is the hand that knocks

women out

I'm a man & a half; I'm trapped up in one; no brash,

just facts

Only once in a lifetime a man like me comes along

Shakespeare wrote poems about me even before I was born

Thunder gave me a lift & lightnin' knocked on your door

Your chance in a lifetime, woman, might not have a

number

To be loved by a man and a half, hey that's what I am,

look here

A man, a camel went across the desert & there was no

one in sight

Let me tell y'all one thing: the camel died tryin'

But your man & a half is here lovin' you tonight

Good God, I'm a man & a half, a man (shouting)

... & fade
