Joe Tex - I'm a Man lyrics

If I were a guitar, I'd like to be played by BB King If I were a little dog, Rufus Thomas could walk me Oh, but I'm a man, Who needs to be loved, baby, I'm a man, honey, Needs to be needed, I can think of nobody, that I want to need me Better than you, baby If I were a song, I'd like to be sung by the Rolling Stones If I were a dance floor, James Brown could mash potatoes on me all night long But I'm a man - Needs someone to cook my favourite dish I'm a man, honey, Who needs to grant someone's every wish And I can think of nobody's wish I'd like to grant, honey, Better than yours, baby And if I were a baseball, I'd like to be hit by Willie Mays If I were a silly grin, I'd like to be worn on Roger Miller's face But I'm a man, Who needs to be loved, I'm a man, baby, Who needs to be wanted, And I can think of nobody that I want to want me Better than you, baby
