No one is really bad right through
He really does it all
He can drop to the floor, he can weep, we won't ask the price
You get attention 'cause you block the stairs
I know a man who's a man
He don't have to perform like John Wayne in some B feature flick
He's a father, he's a brother, he's a rocker, he's a lover
A man is a man, when he can offer his hand
He don't have to get hitched to a train in some muscle beach trick
I know one day your big villain style
When a man is a man and he drinks 'til he's canned
Not afraid of appearing insane if he can't break a brick
He's just another part
But what really matters is the heart he gives
A man is a man, he can fall he can stand
But he opened his heart
I know a man who's a man
He makes your talk seem small
I know a man who was once like you
Will collapse as they turn the key in the door of your cell
Bragging about some bottles you have shattered
Well I met a man who really lives
He's a man he's a man, he doesn't act to a plan
I know a man who could tighten your rein
Can't you sometimes crack a smile?
Not afraid of appearing insane if he can't break a brick
We won't love him more if he keeps his soul on the ice
Do you think if you did we would run and tell?
A man is a man, when he can offer his hand
Every one of us is looking for fame
When a man is a man, he doesn't act to a plan
He's a looker, he's a dresser, he's a genius under pressure
