Man Like Me Lyrics


This is the night I've been dreaming of forever
The mirror takes a look at my face
I'll never set foot in that rat hole again
But I'll drive to your placeI spit gravel as I back out of the back door
And the twenties roll around in my hand
It's funny now, when I don't show up on Monday
They'll go nuts, and eat their hats, well, what do you think of that?She says, you're throwing life away
To move with a man like me
She's not blind
She just don't have mind to seeThis is a habit I'm breaking now forever
I'm weary from trying to shake it
So when I ask if you won't give me your hand
I'll take it right now from your mother's side of townShe says, you're throwing life away
To move with a man like me
She's not blind
She just don't have a mind to seeShe says, you're throwing life away
To move with a man like me
Just to move with a man like me

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Robert Downey Jr. is not one of those guys who got bored with being rich and decided to cut an album just for the fun of it, without the chops to back it up. If you've paid attention to his film work (or his time on Ally McBeal), you'll notice that he does sing and play the piano, and has been doing so since he was a kid. His album is very elegant, for the most part, with beautiful piano playing, excellent singing, musically interesting songwriting, and poetic lyrics. He has a definite Bruce Hornsby feel, but with an overall melancholy.
