Hey little lady do you love me
As much as you tell me you do
Oh I'm not them man you think I am
The game I've been playing is through
Hey little girl do you [bad word] me
Oh I'm gonna tell you no lies
I'm [bad word] clean, don't make a scene
I've been hiding behind a disguise

Oh I'm the man from Manhattan, ole
The man with a price on his head (lots of money)
The man from Manhattan, the surface is satin
But the lining is laden with lead

Oh I've been a fugitive too [bad word] away with my fame
My enemies flee at the sight of me
They shake at the sound of my name

Cause I'm the man from Mahnattan, ole
The man with a price on his head (go and get the deputy)
The man from Manhattan, the surface is satin
But the lining is laden with lead

Don't be afraid, it's only a dream (I'm only dreaming)
An imaginary hero, a vision I've seen
(ah ah ah ah ah) Cuckoo

Oh I know my [bad word] destination
The day will [bad word] I tell you my friend I know my end (will be)
When I'm standing alone in the sight of a gun

Oh I'm the man from Manhattan, ole
The man with a price on his head (lots of money)
The man from Manhattan, the surface is satin
But the lining is laden with lead
