The Story Of A Man

[Verse 1]
The frame of a man, bones and shoulders
From his head to his toes, each day he gets older
The danger of a man, in all of his grandeur
With mighty arms to swing an axe, he cradles his children

[Verse 2]
My daddy is a man, he and his brothers
He works his back and his land, he is like no other
He took a woman for his bride, every day serving
I can see it in his eyes, I see it burning

[Chorus]
Our human minds are prone to pattern
It keeps us sane but drives us mad
I don't want to end up like my mother
But I want a man just like my dad

[Verse 3]
My lover is a man, honest and dirty
He takes the good with the bad, he tells his story
Selfless and right, I trust the truth he claims
And with the lips that sing his songs, he also speaks my name

[Chorus 2]
Our human minds are prone to pattern
It keeps us sane but drives us mad
I don't want to end up like my mother
But I want a man just like my dad
I don't want to end up like my mother
But I want a man just like my dad
