Artist/Band: The Who
Lyrics for Song: A Man Is A Man
Lyrics for Album: It's Hard [1982]



You talk about crazy affairs

You talk about your life as though it mattered

You get attention 'cos you block the stairs

Bragging about some bottles you have shattered



Well I met a man who really lives

He really does it all

But what really matters is the heart he gives

He makes your talk seem small



When a man is a man

He doesn't act to a plan

He don't have to perform like John Wayne in some B feature flick

A man is a man

When he can offer his hand

Not afraid of appearing insane if he can't break a brick

I know a man who's a man



Can't you sometimes crack a smile

Do you think if you did we would run and tell

I know one day your big villian style

Will collapse as they turn the key in the door of your cell



I know a man who was once like you

But he opened his heart

No one is really bad right through

He's just another part



When a man is a man

And he drinks 'til he's canned

He can drop to the floor, he can weep, we won't ask the price

A man is a man

He can fall he can stand

We won't love him more if he keeps his soul on the ice

I know a man who's a man



Every one of us is looking for fame

He's a looker

He's a dresser

He's a genius under pressure

I know a man who could tighten your rein

He's a father

He's a brother

He's a rock

He's a lover



He's a man he's a man

He doesn't act to a plan

He don't have to get hitched to a train in some muscle beach trick

A man is a man

When he can offer his hand

Not afraid of apprearing insane if he can't break a brick

Be a man who's a man
