Album: Tower of Song: The Songs of Leonard Cohen

If you want a lover, I'll do anything you ask me to
And if you want another kind of love, I'll wear a mask for you
If you want a partner, hold my hand
If you want to strike me down in anger, here I stand

Baby, I'm your man

If you want a boxer, I will step into the ring for you
And if you want a doctor, I'll examine every inch of you
If you want a driver, climb inside
Or if you want to take me for a ride, you know you can

Baby, I'm your man

The moon's too bright, the chain's too tight
The beast won't go to sleep
I've been running through these promises to you
That I made and I could not keep

But a man never got a woman back, not by begging on his knees
Or I'd crawl to you baby, I'd fall at your feet
And I'd howl at your beauty like a dog in heat
And I'd claw at your heart and I'd tear at your sheet, I'd say please

I'm your man

And if you gotta sleep a moment on the road, I will steer for you
And if yo want to work the street alone, I'll disappear for you
If you want a father for your child
Or only want to walk with me a while across the sand

Baby, I'm your man, I'm your man

If you want a lover, I'm your man
If you want a boxer, I'm your man
If you want a doctor, I'm your man
