A Man Like Me

Baby likes to hold my hand as I make a promise
She looks me in my eye, in my eye
So she know it’s true
Ain’t a thing she values more than a man who's honest
The girl got hurt before, hurt before
By a man like you
I'm going to tell you right here and now
Ain't gonna be like you anyhow
I'm gonna give her what she wants till what she wants
Is a man like me
She used to hang around with a crowd that put on airs
Talking down their noses; Striking poses
Like they didn't care
Judging everybody but themselves (so they pretended)
but at the bottom of their cold black hearts
They didn't like themselves
I'm going to tell you right here and now
I’m gonna love myself and show her how
I'm gonna give her what she wants till what she wants
Is a man like me
In a world so full of fiction
All she gots to do is kick that addiction
With a man like me
No I never thought that much of myself - that's a natural fact
The Lord gave me self respect, and then he took it all back
But I found it all again and now I'm primed to act
I'm going to live up to the challenge
Give her everything those other men lack
Gotta tell you right here and now
Ain't gonna be like you anyhow
I'm gonna give her what she wants till what she wants
Is a man like me
Baby likes to hold my hand as I make a promise
She looks me in my eye, in my eye
So she know it’s true
Ain’t a thing she values more than a man who's honest
The girl got hurt before, ain’t a door
That I wanna walk through
I'm going to tell you right here and now
Ain't gonna be like you anyhow
I'm gonna give her what she wants till what she wants
Is a man like me
I'm gonna give her what she wants till what she wants
Is a man like me
