I'm a Man Songtext
von Bo Diddley

Now when I was a little boy
About the age of five
I had something all in my pockets
To keep a lot of folks alive
Now I′m a man
And I made twenty-one
You know, pretty baby
You and I could have a lot of fun

I'm a man
I′m a man
I'm a hoochie coochie man
Oh, oh, oh, oh yeah

I'm going back down
To Kansas to
I′m gonna bring back the second cousin
Little John the Conqueror


I′m a man
I'm a man
I say a hoochie coochie man
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, oh, oh, ooh

Woah, woah, woah, woah!
The line I shoot will never miss
The way I′m makin' love to ′em, you know they can't resist
I′m a man, I'm a man, baby
I'm a hoochie coochie man
Ooo, ooo, woah, woah

Little thing ain′t tell ′em I'm a man
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Let me hear you say, "Oh yeah, oh yeah!"
Ladies and gentlemen, what about a big
Round of applause for a hell of a group
Main Squeeze, come on, give ′em a big round of applause
Stand up, give 'em a, give ′em a big bow, yeah
Right on, Main Squeeze
Yeah, right on, have mercy
We, we are just getting started
