The Yardbirds I'm a Man Lyrics: Now, when I was a little boy, At the age of five, I had somethin' in my pocket, Kept a lot of folks alive. Now I'm a man, I spell M-A-N - man. All you pretty women, Stand in line. I can make love to you baby, In an hour's time. Now I'm a man, I spell M-A-N, ohh. The line I shoot, Will never miss, Make love to you baby, [ Find more Lyrics on www.mp3lyrics.org/Pv61 ]You can't resist. Now I'm a man. I spell M-A-N - man. [Instrumental break.] Goin back down, To Kansas to, Bring back a little girl, Just like you. Now I'm a man, I spell M-A-N - man. [Instrumental break.] Now I'm a man, Made twenty-one. You know, baby, We can have a lot of fun. I'm a man, I spell M-A-N - man. [Instrumental coda.]Lyrics: I'm a Man, The Yardbirds [end] |

3 Transcribed from the track on this album.
The following note was brought forward from
the previous submission:
"Many different recordings of the song exist,
each with differing lyrics. I have tried to
collate the important lyrics here. Inevitably
some lines will be missed out, and the order of
verses changed. The studio version consists
solely of the middle three verses.
© Arc Music Corp. BMI"
I left the verses just as they were in the
previous submission, making only minor changes
and adding footnotes. bri4daz@mp3lyrics.org
