Born A Man

(album: Monday's Rain - 1966)

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

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
