If you want a lover, I'll do anything you ask me to And if you want another kind of love, I'll wear a mask for you If you want a partner — take my hand Or if you want to strike me down in anger — Here I stand I'm your man
If you want a boxer, I will step into the ring for you And if you want a doctor, I'll examine every inch of you If you want a driver — climb inside Or if you want to take me for a ride, You know you can I'm your man
Ah, the moons too bright The chains too tight The beast won't go to sleep I've been running through these promises to you That I made and I could not keep Ah but a man never got a woman back Not by begging on his knees Or I'd crawl to you baby And I'd fall at your feet And I'd howl at your beauty Like a dog in heat And I'd claw at your heart And I'd tear at your sheet I'd say please, please I'm your man
And if you've got to sleep a moment on the road, I will steer for you And if you want to work the street alone, I'll disappear for you If you want a father for your child Or only want to walk with me a while Across the sand — I'm your man
