"I'm A Man (Remix)" lyrics
(Jones County, J-J-Jones County)
(Jones County, J-J-J-Jones County)
(Jones County)
Some people think men are just born but a man is raised
(J-J-J-Jones County)
Out Hwy 11 north toward Monticello
Up on the left I was raised by a hard working fella
Through freezin' and meltin' weather
And when I got out of line then I felt the belt leather
But when I followed his lead I got better
Learned how to be a man and never to say never
The first to leave and the last one home
Ain't nobody breathin' more of a man than Ricky Jones
I'm twice the man I used to be
Everything was so damn new to me
But I love everything that I grew to be, I'm a man
I won't say nothin' behind your back I won't say in your face
Know when to take a risk and when to play it safe
This is a journey, boy, it ain't no race, I'm a man
Yes sir, I'm a man
I don't play when it comes to my money
My house, my kids, or my honey
I don't laugh if the joke ain't funny
I am a man
I work hard takin' care of my fans
I don't back down when it's time to take a stand
You got my word if you shake my hand
I am a man
Yes sir, I am a man
(J-J-Jones county)
Some people think men are just born but a man is raised
(J-J-J-Jones County)
I can't say my daddy taught me to drink, bud, and fish
But he did teach me how to mix mud and lay bricks
I begged to miss school to go to work when I was six
Missed the bus on purpose and told mama I was sick
I'm twice the man I used to be
Everything was so damn new to me
But I love everything that I grew to be, I'm a man
I won't say nothing behind your back I won't say in your face
Know when to take a risk and when to play it safe
This is a journey, boy, it ain't no race, I'm a man
Yes sir, I'm a man
I don't play when it comes to my money
My house my kids or my honey
I don't laugh if the joke ain't funny
I am a man
I work hard takin' care of my fans
I don't back down when it's time to take a stand
You got my word if you shake my hand
I am a man, yes sir, I'm a Man
