Only A Man

Hi Folks,

now it is time for talking about a real big, big problem:

I never had sex with a black girl

No topless squaw licked my wounds

No Babushka nursed my aching head and

no mermaid rescued me

I never had tea with a Chinese girl

Or been caressed from an Eskimo one

And the problem is... (more)

Only A Man

Hi Folks,

now it is time for talking about a real big, big problem:

I never had sex with a black girl

No topless squaw licked my wounds

No Babushka nursed my aching head and

no mermaid rescued me

I never had tea with a Chinese girl

Or been caressed from an Eskimo one

And the problem is:

How to explain to my girlfriend

that she may understand

There’s no problem with our relationship

Because I am only a man

I am only a man, just only a man

I never slept with an Egyptian fairy

No Gipsy maid spent tenderness

No beauty queen has ever kissed me

And no princess changed my life

I am not converted by a topless angel

And not even one Geisha made love to me

You see, there are a lot of things to do, but:

How to explain to my girlfriend

that she may understand

There’s no problem with our relationship

Because I am only a man

I am only a man, just only a man

And I really don’t know about reincarnation and all this fucking stuff…

So – how long shell I wait?

You can believe me my girlfriend does not look like an Eskimo

I don’t know why she does not understand.

(That) she’s not a woman of color

And thank God that she’s not a mermaid

Because I am only a man, just only a man
