Man of the World

I want to be, I got to be

I want to be, I got to beI heard there was a future bride

Who will before your eyes

Oh, I guess I never knew

Yeah, what your woman's getting up to nowI want to be, I got to be

Man of the world

I want to be, I got to be

Man of the world

I want to be, I got to be

Man, man, man

I want to be, I got to beI really tried to make ends meet

Keep your vow, turn off the streets

And I never wondered what you was feeling

All the time I was achieving and a stealing, yeahI want to be, I got to be

Man of the world

I want to be, I got to be

Man of the world

I want to be, I got to be

Man of the world

I want to be, I got to beAnd I tried to see the light

And I tried to turn back to fight

But all my friends that I was choosing, yeah

They were double dealers and a four time losers, yeahI want to be, I got to be

Man of the world

I want to be, I got to be

Man of the world

I want to be, I got to be

Man, man, manI want to be, I got to be

Oh, yeahI want to be, I got to be

Man of the worldI want to be, I got to be

Man of the worldI want to be, I got to be

Man of the world
