Born A Man Lyrics

Born A Man

When I was just a little boy , when I didn't know 
My daddy put me n his knee and showed me the way to go 
He said " a woman will do her best to make a fool out of you 
So be a man and stand the test and see what you can do " . 

I'm glad I am born a man 
I'm glad I am born a man 

If you got what it takes my boy 
You can always choose 
Work it out before it's too late my boy 
Make sure you never lose 

I'm glad I am born a man 
I'm glad I am born a man 

Born a man , etc... ad lib during break 

Ev'ry woman wants her man to live and learn on her land 
Where I go , baby you go 
Arrangement , man and wife 

I'm glad I am born a man 
I'm glad I am born a man 

Born a man , etc ... ad lib and fade out
