Story Behind The Song

Having had up-and-down relationships in my life, as most people have, I thought it would be fun to write a "no holds barred" commentary about what alot of women find lacking in their relationships.

Song Description

A song that plays with the idea that it's hard for a woman to find a man who has everything she wants. The song makes fun of some of the attributes men and women think are important in a relationship. It usually gets a great response from both men and women at first, and then the men go "huh?" as they realize it's mocking them a bit . Women request the song as that "Get down on his knees" song--but in the end it's all tongue in cheek....

Lyrics

Gimme a Man

Gimme a man who can treat me right
I'll show you a man that can hold me tight
It's not that my ego is too hard to please, but
I like a man when he's down on his knees

Give me a man, give me a man
A man who can

Give me a man upstanding and strong
You know what I mean, he can say when he's wrong
I don't want him broken, I don't want him beat
I like a man with plenty of meat

Give me a man, give me a man
A man who can

I just want a man who makes me feel good
I'll show you a man who acts like he should
Cause when I'm gettin tired and I want to have fun
I want a man beside me that can get the job done

Give me a man, give me a man
A man who can

Please show me a man who can sweep me away
At this point I don't even care if he's gay
If he talks a good story, tell him he's hired
I'm tired of just rockin until I get tired

Give me a man, give me a man
A man who can

If you show me a man that treats me like dirt
I'll show you a man that's about to get hurt
I don't need no whips, bullets or chains
Like I said before I really need a man with some brains

Give me a man, give me a man
A man who can
Give me a man, give me a man
A man who can
Give me a man, give me a man
A man who can

(Am I asking for too much or what?)
