The Man in Me Lyrics

[Harmonizing]

[Verse 1]
The man in me will do nearly any task
And as for compensation, there’s little he would ask
Take a woman like you
To get through to the man in me

[Verse 2]
Storm clouds are raging all around my door
I think to myself I might not take it anymore
Take a woman like your kind
To find the man in me

[Verse 3]
But, oh, what a wonderful feeling
Just to know that you are near

Sets my heart a-reeling
From my toes up to my ears

[Verse 4]
The man in me will hide sometimes to keep from bein' seen
But that’s just because he doesn’t want to turn into some machine
Took a woman like you
To get through to the man in me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
