Lyrics
Oh Lord I'd like to thank you for that sixth day way back when
When you created Woman......to stand beside us lonely men
They are magic creatures, and you know how much I love um
But I'm so very grateful that I'm ME and not one of um
I think of what they go through once a month for 40 years
No wonder they cry all the time....that'd bring a guy to tears
The day that I was born, it could have gone either way
But one Y chromosome made me who I am today
Thank you for creatin' me....thanks for not forsakin' me
But thank you MOST for makin' me a MAN
We can burp and pick and scratch wherever we are itchin'
We bark and whine, curse and complain.....nobody calls it bitchin
When we're approachin 50, we're handsome and distinguished
When they say bye bye 30 the world says their fire's extinguished
Thank you for creatin' me....thanks for not forsakin' me
But thank you MOST for makin' me a MAN
I can eat a side of beef and drink beer til it hurts
She can gain 10 pounds if she looks sideways at dessert
The more women I tag, the more I brag, then I'm known as a champ
If I were they, each roll in the hay would brand me as a tramp
Every night I get down on my knees and I give thanks
That I don't have to deal with stiletto heels and Spanx
Thank you for creatin' me....thanks for not forsakin' me
But thank you MOST for makin' me a MAN
Amen ....A Man! Amen.... A Man
