Missa Man Songtext
von Tippa Irie

Now every DJ around the world
A talk ′bout woman
But mi haffi talk 'bout man
Although me love my woman to the ground weh she walk ′pon
Watch yah!

I am a man
I am a man, I am a man, I am a man you know
I am a man, I am a man, I am a man you know
A Mr. Man, a Mr. Man, a Mr. Man you know
A Mr. Man, a Mr. Man, a Mr. Man


This a Mr. Man have good intention
This a Mr. Man, mi haffi stand up strong
Have mi owna house, have mi owna land
Have mi owna car and mi owna woman
Have a few kids and take care of everyone
Make sure dem have a good education
Make sure mi mommy have nuff food fi nyam
Make sure mi granny have help at hand
Responsibility, Tipper nah run from
Because mi haffi stand up to it like a man

I am a man, I am a man, I am a man you know
I am a man, a Mr. Man, a Mr. Man you know
I am a man, I am a man, a Mr. Man you know
A Mr. Man, a Mr. Man, a Mr. Man

Every DJ dem a talk 'bout woman
I man Mr. Irie haffi talk 'bout man
Haffi talk ′bout man although mi love my woman
′Cause music is my life, my salvation
That's how I man survive as a man
′Cause to be a man, you got to be strong
Got to be there to support my woman
My children, nobody nah walk pon
This a Mr. Irie, I am not a bad man
But mi don't want no guy try diss di program
′Cause I will stand up to him like a man

A Mr. Man, a Mr. Man, a Mr. Man you know
A Mr. Man, a Mr. Man, a Mr. Man you know
A Mr. Man, a Mr. Man, a Mr. Man you know
A Mr. Man, a Mr. Man, a Mr. Man


Yes crowd of people, you have all type of man
You have tall man, you have short man
You have fat man and you have slim one
No matter how you stay, no matter how you tan
From you is a man you have to have ambition
Make sure you follow God and no follow Satan
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
Seven day a week mi haffi be a good man
A conscious man and a righteous man
Listen Mr. Irie and understand

A Mr. Man, a Mr. Man, a Mr. Man you know
I am a man, I am a man, I am a man you know
I am a man, I am a man, I am a man you know
A Mr. Man, a Mr. Man, a Mr. Man

This a Mr. Man have good intention
This a Mr. Man, mi have nuff ambition
Nuff ambition and determination
To reach to di top as a musician
And make a bag of money like Michael Jackson
And make a movie like Whitney Houston
And have a concert inna Wembley Stadium
Him play in front of a hundred thousand fan
The whole a dem come just to see me one
Fi see di Mr. Man at di microphone stand

A Mr. Man, a Mr. Man, a Mr. Man you know
A Mr. Man, a Mr. Man, a Mr. Man you know
A Mr. Man, a Mr. Man, a Mr. Man you know
A Mr. Man, a Mr. Man, a Mr. Man

Well mi look and say
The Tipper, I'm a Mr. Man
Hold the mic up in mi hand
Rock the woman and rock the man
And rock the weak and rock the strong
It no matter where you′re from
You got to rock to this a song
This a song it come along
Fi big up all the Mr. Man

A Mr. Man, a Mr. Man, a Mr. Man you know
A Mr. Man, a Mr. Man, a Mr. Man you know
A Mr. Man, a Mr. Man, a Mr. Man you know
