Life has been good to me - I been good to this life
Life's been cool with me - I been cool all my life
Sometimes I cry - just like a baby (try for me baby)
Life was sittin' right with me - I was sittin' right with life
I was sittin' right with my children - they were sittin' right with my wife
Saddened by life from time to time
Saddened by my presence (don't open 'em 'til Christmas..)
Sometimes I cry - just like a baby (try for me baby, try for me baby)
Sometimes I cry - just like a baby (try for me baby, try for me baby)
Off o' your knees c'mon up and try me
Get off o' your knees c'mon up and try
Off o' your knees come and try a man like me
Stop your cryin' - stop that cryin'!
Life been good to you - you been so good to this life
Life will be cool with you if you're cool with life
It could be bad for you - could be worse for me
Dear Lord don't you know you gotta try
Sometimes I cry - just like a baby
Raise my standards high
Wave my flag and raise my standard high
Try a man like me…
Try a man like me…
Try a man like me…
Try a man like me…
Raise my standards high
Raise them standards high
Raise them standards high
Wave the flag
C'mon try a man like me
C'mon - try a man like me
Raise my standards high - try a man like me
Raise my standards high - try a man like me
