I wanna be a man of the world
With blood in my veins and a hurt in my heart
Out in the street with the noise and the dirt
And the ones still lookin' for a brand new start

Oh, I've been sleeping far too long
Hiding out in a palace of gold
Show me one thing before I'm gone
That can't be bought and can't be sold

Show me how [bad word] alive
Show me how to make you mine
'Cause if you'd only be my girl
I could be a man of the world
I could be a man of the world
