I am a man as a man I´ve been told Bacon is brought to the house in this mold Born of your bellies I yearn for the cord
Years I have groveled repentance ignored
And I have been blamed And I have repented I´m working my way toward our union mended
I am man who has grown from a son Been crucified by enraged women I am son who was raised by such men I´m often reminded of the fools I´m among
And I have been shamed And I have relented I´m working my way toward our union mended And I have been shamed And I have repented I´m working my way toward our union mended
we don´t fare well with endless reprimands we don´t do well with a life served as a sentence this won´t work well if you´re hell bent on your offence I am a man who understands your resistance
I am a man who still does what he can to dispel our archaic reputation I am a man who has heard all he can cuz I don´t fare well with endless punishment
Cuz I have been blamed and I have repented I´m working my way toward our union mended And we have been blamed and we have repented I´m working my way toward our union mended
