Song Lyrics

People will know
When they see this show
The kind of a guy I am
They'll understand what I stand for
And what I just can't stand
They'll perceive what I believe in
What I know is true
And they'll recognize I'm a one man guy
Always was through and through

I'm a one man guy in the morning
I'm the same in the afternoon
One man guy when the sun goes down
I whistle me a one man tune
I'm a one man guy a one man guy
Only kind of guy to be
I'm a one man guy
I'm a one man guy
I'm a one man guy is me
I'm a one man kind of a guy

People meditate
Hey that's just great
Trying to find the inner you
People depend on family and friends
And other folks to pull them through

I don't know why I'm a one man guy
Or why this is a one man show
But these three cubic feet of bone and blood and meat are what I love and know

I'm a one man guy in the morning
I'm the same in the afternoon
One man guy when the sun goes down
I whistle me a one man tune
I'm a one man guy a one man guy
Only kind of guy to be
I'm a one man guy
I'm a one man guy
I'm a one man guy is me
I'm a one man kind of a guy

I'm gonna bathe and shave
And dress myself and eat solo every night
Unplug the phone, sleep alone
Stay way out of sight
Sure it's kind of lonely
Yeah it's sort of sick
Being your own one and only
Is a selfish dirty trick

I'm a one man guy in the morning
I'm the same in the afternoon
One man guy when the sun goes down
I whistle me a one man tune
One man guy a one man guy
Only kind of guy to be
I'm a one man guy
I'm a one man guy
I'm a one man guy is me
I'm a one man guy
