Family Man Lyrics

Family Man

 Daryl Hall & John Oates

 K. Cross/R. Fenn/M. Frye/M. Oldfield

 M. Pert/M. Reilly

 

 She had sulky smile

 She took her standard pose as she presented herself

 She had sultry eyes, she made it perfectly plain that she was his

 For a price

 

 But he said "Leave me alone, I'm a family man

 And my bark is much worse than my bite"

 He said "Leave me alone, I'm a family man

 But if you push me too far I just might"

 

 She wore hurt surprise as she rechecked her make-up to protect herself

 Dropped her price and pride she made it totally clear that she was his

 For a night

 

 She gave him her look, it would have worked on any other man around

 He looked her up and down, she knew he couldn't decide if he should

 Hold his ground

 

 She turned, tossed her head unlike her opening move, her final exit line

 He waited much too long but by the time he got his courage up she was gone

 Then he screamed "Leave me alone, I'm a family man

 And my bark is much worse than my bite"

 He said "Leave me alone, I'm a family man

 But if you push me too far, I just might"
