Everything A Man Could Ever Need Lyrics

(Written by Mac Davis)

 (As recorded by Glen Campbell)

 (From the movie 'Norwood')

 

 Looking back on the days

 When I was scuffling for a buck

 Not overly concerned with life and love

 I was always feeling sorry

 For myself and my bad luck

 I never stopped to think what life's made of

 

 With my nose to the grindstone

 And my collar to the wheel

 I fought for my daily dollar like a man

 Then you came into my life

 And nothing else seemed real

 I found the answer right here in my hands

 

 Now I've got everything a man could ever need

 I've got dreams to dream and songs to sing

 In the morning

 I've got hands to hold my baby-child

 And eyes to watch my woman smile

 I've got everything a man could ever need

 

 Now my working days seem shorter

 Than they ever did before

 And the evening breeze gets cooler day by day

 And the morning sun is always shining

 Down on my backdoor

 And your laughter washes all my tears away

 

 And there's not a day goes by

 When I don't look up to the sky

 And humbly thank the good Lord up above

 For bringing you to me in time

 To make me realize

 That all a poor man really needs is love

 

 Now I've got everything a man could ever need

 I've got dreams to dream and songs to sing

 In the morning

 I've got hands to hold my baby-child

 And eyes to watch my woman smile

 I've got everything a man could ever need

 I've got everything a man could ever need
