Hall & Oates - Family Man lyrics

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"
