This Man's a child
this man is old
sometimes he's mild
sometimes he's bold
This man I love sometimes in spite
of wishing he'd stick to his guns or
abandon the fight
But when he shines, oh when he shines
yes, when he shines, he shines so bright
Sometimes a tramp, sometimes a dude
He changes colors just like a chameleon
can't find the mood
He is a song that's not easy to write
He's the moon in the morning and the sun
out at night
But when he shines, when he shines oh when he shines
he shines so bright.
This man's a gentle man, this man is strong
this temperemental man plays me along
But when he shines, when he shines, oh when he shines
he shines so bright
yes when he shines, when he shines, oh when he shines
he shines so bright
but when he shines, oh when he shines, yes, when he shines, he shines so
bright.
