Man In A Uniform

Prince · The Truth [1998]

Oh, she said,

(hut!)



She said "Man in a uniform

Tonight that's what I want you to be"

She said "Third time this week you wore that old suit

But I don't give a damn, you see?

Because man in a uniform do funny things to me"

And I said "It's the third time, but I don't mind

Cause that sister just so damn fine, ah"



Man in a uniform (hut!)

That's what I am

Man in a uniform, uh

That's what I am



She said "Man in a uniform

Sufferin' every stroke of my hand

From the dusk until the early morn'

You will grant this girl's demands" (why)

Cause she need to be drunk with pride

Wait a minute, I'm gon' tell you why

To make up, to make up

To make up for the emptiness that she feel inside

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Come on



Man in a uniform, mama

That's what I am (hut!)

(hut!)



Man in a uniform

She said "Tonight (tonight)

I want your attention" (attention)

She said "Tonight I want your violent tongue

To swallow my stench and be loyal to me

She'll never be free

Until you do me like a man in a uniform" (hut!)



Man in a uniform (in a uniform)

That's what I am

In a uniform (baby, baby, yeah)

That's what I am

Dirty little man in a uniform

That's what I am (hut!)
