A Ladiesman |
| Back as a boy I longed to be |
| The fellow women loved to see |
| And have them all consider me |
| A «Ladiesman» |
| I dreamed of Jeannie with delight |
| And Mary moanin' in the night |
| As I became with all my might |
| A «Ladiesman» |
| Developed into a fuller flower |
| This throbbing thrust of manly power |
| Consumed my every waking hour |
| A «Ladiesman» |
| I felt the urge, that awful itch |
| It mounted to a fever pitch |
| I had me girls no matter which |
| A «Ladiesman» |
| Ah, but the hottest fever cools |
| Those who don’t face that fact are fools |
| For like all men time overrules |
| A «Ladiesman» |
| What once was warm began to chill |
| As father time enforced his will |
| Until I wondered «am I still |
| «A Ladiesman?» |
| At first I tried to hide my loss |
| Pretending I was still the boss |
| With girls who’d never come across |
| A «Ladiesman» |
| But they moved with too swift a step |
| I needed patience more than pep |
| To keep alive my fading rep |
| A «Ladiesman» |
| Don’t get me wrong now, I not dead |
| My shoulders hold a damn good head |
| So joy has not completely fled |
| A «Ladiesman» |
| But it can never be the same |
| The vigor’s vanished from my game |
| For reminiscing, can you blame |
| A «Ladiesman»? |
| I look back at the life I’ve led |
| What would my powers have got, instead |
| Had I not shot so much in bed |
| A «Ladiesman»? |
| What tricky trade might I have tried |
| Had I not laid pre-occupied |
| But then whose ever satisfied |
| A «Ladiesman»? |
| The women I laid, frequently |
| Each in her heart held secretly |
| That she was really making me |
| A «Ladiesman» |
| A woman feels, a man may guess |
| That she conceals beneath her dress |
| A trap in which she can possess |
| A «Ladiesman» |
| She throws the bait, she shows the lure |
| There’s no escaping, that’s for sure |
| You’re never really free when you’re |
| A «Ladiesman» |
| Each fellow follows his own star |
| But take no appetite too far |
| That’s sound advice, in case you are |
| A «Ladiesman» |
| But you call all this sour grapes |
| Devote yourself to willing rapes |
| And never mind what all escapes |
| A «Ladiesman» |
| Oh, you must feel betrayed by age |
| I’m reading from a later page |
| You can’t hear me at your stage |
| A «Ladiesman» |
| Therefore, my boy, enjoy your prime |
| Until your fateful date with time |
| When no longer can you claim, «Hey I’m |
| A Ladiesman» |
| Hey, there’s a beauty, you agree? |
| Has quite a body, hasn’t she? |
| Well, sock it to her once for me! |
| A «Ladiesman» |
