Be That Man Lyrics by Brett Fromson

Man of Conviction

2021

[Verse 1]
Ridin' into town, ridin' like we ain't afraid of nothin'
Me and Jim, we had a pocket full of money 'cause we play in the band
And all the ladies on the street have a laugh, they know we're only twenty-two, yeah
But hell if me and Jim here could give a damn
[Verse 2]
Well, we walk into this joint, had the lights up and shinin' on Main Street
Showed 'em that identification 'cause we finally can
And who should we meet after just one drink out on the patio?
But the owner of the bar with a Cuban cigar and a Black and Tan, yeah
[Chorus]
I wanna be that man, I wanna be that man
Arm around a woman, glass in his hand
I wanna be that man
Lord, I wanna bе that man
I wanna be that man, I wanna be that man
Arm around a woman, glass in his hand
I wanna be that man
Lord, I wanna bе that man
[Verse 3]
He said, "How you doin', fellas? How's the rye whiskey treatin' you now?"
I said, "Sir, I couldn't think of one way to have a better time"
He said, "Woo there, boy, don't you go and say nothing so drastic
Just have a seat and let me treat you like a couple good friends of mine"
[Chorus]
I wanna be that man, I wanna be that man
Arm around a woman, glass in his hand
I wanna be that man
Lord, I wanna be that man
I wanna be that man, I wanna be that man
Arm around a woman, glass in his hand
I wanna be that man
Lord, I wanna be that man
[Bridge]
He started pourin' us drinks, you know, that we ain't never tasted
Said he was buddies with one Chuck Bukowski back in '89
They had a mutual affection for fine women, drinking, and horses
They won a whole lot of money on a mare comin' down the line
[Chorus]
I wanna be that man, I wanna be that man
Arm around a woman, glass in his hand
I wanna be that man
Lord, I wanna be that man
I wanna be that man, I wanna be that man
Arm around a woman, glass in his hand
I wanna be that man
Lord, I wanna be that man
I wanna be that man, I wanna be that man
Arm around a woman, glass in his hand
I wanna be that man
Lord, I wanna be that man
I wanna be that man, I wanna be that man
Arm around a woman, glass in his hand
I wanna be that man
Lord, I wanna be that man
