(john hiatt)

I'm a real man, i got a real guitar
I'm a real man, don't even know where the boys are
Don't want to frighten you little girl, you're so sweet and nice
Don't want to have to tell you twice

I'm a real man,
I'm goin' to rock like a real man
Don't get no shock from that elevator music in your computer program
How'd you like to rock with a real man?

Yes i'm a real man, baby, i'm not lyin'
I'm thirty-four years old now and i still don't mind dyin'
You can put the voodoo on me, girl
There's nothing i can't dodge
Just check out this roller in my garage

Kids, these days, i'm talkin' about these young folk
About as wild as pollyanna after she growed up
After a hard day at the casiotone they just don't want to live
They're about as dangerous as a junior executive

I'm a real man,
I'm goin' to rock like a real man
Don't get no shock from that elevator music in your computer program
How'd you like to rock with a real man?

Every dollar i earn
Girl, i let it all burn
And if i wind up in jail
There's only one of 2672 women that i know
Who would gladly pay my bail

- guitar break -

Now you might say i'm just some fool on a boast
But i wasn't gonna hear ya girl from coast to coast
This ain't dan rather talkin', this ain't the president's son
I'm still gonna have my fun

I'm a real man
I'm goin' to rock like a real man
Don't get no shock from that elevator music in your computer program
How'd you like to rock with a real man?
Turn off that elevator music in your computer program
How'd you like to rock with a real man?
Turn off that elevator music, in your computer program
Come on and rock with a real man!
