Baby girl it's plain to see
All of them things that you're doing to me
While I got you oh so near
Them things you do just send me there
I wanna be your man, yeah, ha
I wanna be your man

People try to put you down
Talking that jive all over the town
I don't mind what the people say
Gonna talk that jive just in any old way
I wanna be your man, hey, ha
I wanna be your man

Give me loving with the things you do
You make me feel, so brand new
It's just me and you
Over your house, and only you
I wanna be your man, hey, ha
I wanna be your man

Hit me now

Well, I don't mind if the sun don't shine
Cause I keep my loving in the evening time
Just stick me down in the ground to rot
I wanna be your man, hey, ha
I wanna be your man
I wanna be your man, hey, ha
I wanna be your man
