Gil Scott-Heron - A Legend In His Own Mind lyrics

Well he loved plenty women from Canada to Mexico They would to love to see him coming and hated when he had to go A macho man before macho ever came to town The only problem was not enough of him to go around You know he had had more romances than L.A.'s got stars He had had more romances than Detroit's got cars He's a, a legend in his own mind and God's gift to women On a day God wasn't giving up a thing Well you hate to see him coming when you're grooving at your favorite bar He's the d**h of the party and a self-proclaimed superstar Got permanent Jones to a**ure you he's been everywhere A show stopping name dropping answer to the ladies' prayers To hear him telling he had more romances than doctors got bills He had had more romances than Beverly got Hills He's a, a legend in his own mind and God's gift to women On a day God wasn't giving up a thing You don't have to listen when he's rattling on, yeah You don't have to listen, he's telling everybody else You don't have to believe him, I don't think I'll ever believe him Matter of fact he may well not believe himself Well he loved plenty women from Canada to Mexico And they loved to see him coming and hated when he had to go A macho man before macho ever came to town The only problem was not enough of him to go around You know he had had more romances than airplanes got gauges He had had more romances than phone books got pages He's a, a legend in his own mind and God's gift to women On a day God wasn't giving up a thing He's a, a legend in his own mind and God's gift to women On a day God wasn't giving up, wasn't giving up, wasn't giving up He's a, a legend in his own mind and God's gift to women On a day God wasn't giving up a thing
