"Man's World (Ramta Jogi)" lyrics

Well, here's a story of a different kinda love
But with the views of a man who's confused and had enough

When a girl he thought he knew wasn't all he bought into
She tried to make him the man that she always wanted to

Thinking back to the first few days
You used to say you didn't mind my age
So I was younger it didn't mean a thing
Now I've got a feeling I'm a puppet on a string

Thought it was cute how my jeans would sag
And how you used to laugh when I talked in slang
Now the same things you despise
I can tell when out in public how you roll your eyes

You almost had me in the palm of your hands, girl
(Need to be alone, Jogi)
'Cause all that you see is a boy in a man's world
(Find a place to go, Jogi)
You almost had me in the palm of your hands, girl
(That I could call my own, Jogi)
'Cause all that you see is a boy in a man's world
(Won't you let me Rhome, Jogi?)

I'm a student but you work full time
Which means I'm overdrawn but you knew that mind
(But you knew that)
And now you're moaning I don't pay the rent
So you lie about my job in front all of your friends

Truth be told I don't know no more
(I don't know no more)
If I can tell you everything I've learnt for sure
'Bout how you think it'd go like this
I think you catch my drift

You almost had me in the palm of your hands, girl
(Need to be alone, Jogi)
'Cause all that you see is a boy in a man's world
(Find a place to go, Jogi)
You almost had me in the palm of your hands, girl
(That I could call my own, Jogi)
'Cause all that you see is a boy in a man's world
(Won't you let me Rhome, Jogi?)

You almost had me in the palm of your hands, girl
(Need to be alone, Jogi)
'Cause all that you see is a boy in a man's world
(Find a place to go, Jogi)
You almost had me in the palm of your hands, girl
(That I could call my own, Jogi)
'Cause all that you see is a boy in a man's world
(Won't you let me Rhome, Jogi?)

Well, here is a story of a different kinda love
With the views of a man who's confused
I wasn't man enough, not mature enough
Comes a time when a man's gotta choose
I won't take this shit can't take this shit
Don't you cry 'cause it's not any use
Was this all a game under ball and chain?
Look at me, this is me cutting loose

You almost had me in the palm of your hands, girl
(Need to be alone, Jogi)
'Cause all that you see is a boy in a man's world
(Find a place to go, Jogi)
You almost had me in the palm of your hands, girl
(That I could call my own, Jogi)
'Cause all that you see is a boy in a man's world
(Won't you let me Rhome, Jogi?)

You almost had me in the palm of your hands, girl
(You almost had me in the palm of your hands, girl)
'Cause all that you see is a boy in a man's world
(I'm a boy in a man's world)
You almost had me in the palm of your hands, girl
(Oh, no, no, no, no)
'Cause all that you see is a boy in a man's world

You almost had me in the palm of your hands, girl
(Need to be alone, Jogi)
'Cause all that you see is a boy in a man's world
(Find a place to go, Jogi)
You almost had me in the palm of your hands, girl
(That I could call my own, Jogi)
'Cause all that you see is a boy in a man's world
(Won't you let me Rhome, Jogi?)

You almost had me in the palm of your hands, girl
(Need to be alone, Jogi)
'Cause all that you see is a boy in a man's world
(Find a place to go, Jogi)
