Lyrics
Gonna bring home the bacon; Gonna soothe all your achin?;
Give you love, for the takin?, like the mornin? dew...
an? yo? man, yo? man, yo? man, yo? man?s gonna look out for you.
Gonna make your life sunny; Gonna make lots of money;
Gonna tickle your funny bone an? pour your brew...
an? yo? man, yo? man, yo? man, yo? man?s gonna look out for you.
Through the thorns and the rocks; Through kids speckled with pox;
Through the holes in the socks, should the dough get tight...
Your man?ll be there, like the shine in your hair,
and yo? man?s gonna treat you right.
Gonna share all life?s pleasures; Gonna savor life?s treasures;
Gonna face all life?s pressures with a love that?s true...
an? yo? man, yo? man, yo? man, yo? man?s gonna look out for you.
Gonna be your true bud? if you?re mired in mud,
Ôcause you?re deep in my blood, an? my blood?s true blue...
an? yo? man, yo? man, yo? man, yo? man?s gonna look out for you.
Yeh, yo? man, yo? man, yo? man, yo? man?s gonna look out for you.
