When A ManƉ' In Love

Like a newborn baby
The message on the machine says
"You're driving me crazy
His feet don't touch the ground
He can hardly wait to see her tonight, oh yeah
Every new song on the radio
Reminds him of her
He says hello to strangers
And he's singing in the shower
The sign in his eyes says
This guy's got a problem so nice so nice
She don't know what she's doing to him
Everyday's like Christmas, it sure ain't a dream
When a man's in love, when a man's in love
He'll fight like a tiger, fly like a dove when a man's in love
He's early on the job
And all his friends begin to sense
His attitude has changed
He's serene and contented
His feet don't touch the ground
He can hardly wait to see her tonight, oh yeah
And he calls her on the telephone
About a dozen times an hour
She's flattered by the avalanche
Of attention and flowers
He tells all his buddies, "Boys
I've finally found someone for me, oh yeah"
She don't know what she's doing to him
Everyday's like Christmas, it sure ain't a dream
When a man's in love, when a man's in love
Ain't nothin' too hard or too tough when a man's in love
When a man's in love, when a man's in love
He'll fight like a tiger, fly like a dove when a man's in love, oh yeah
When a man's in love
She dominates his every thought
And dream and conversation
He talks about her constantly
With an air of jubilation
There ain't nothin' in the world
He wouldn't do to make her little face smile, oh yeah
But oh don't it make you want to smile and dance
May God bless us all with a little romance
When a man's in love, when a man's in love
She's in his heart and runnin' through his blood, when a man's in love
When a man's in love, when a man's in love
He'll fight like a tiger, fly like a dove when a man's in love
When a man's in love, when a man's in love
There ain't nothing he can't do
When a man's in love, when a man's in love
Oh yeah, when a man's in love, a man's in love
When a man's in love
