You Got to Be a Man Lyrics

You don't have to be blind
to be in the dark
You don't have to be weak
to get a broken heart
Oh, but you got to be a man
do what a man suppose to do
oooh, refuse to give up now
see all the trials and tribulations through
If you can do all these things,
you know what?
You're sho' 'nuff uptight

You don't have to be a king
to sit upon a throne
You don't have to be an angel
to know right and wrong
Oh, but you got to be a man
do what a man suppose to do
oooh, refuse to give up now
see all the trials and tribulations through
If you can do all these things,
you know what?
You're sho' 'nuff uptight

Yoooouu - ohh,
don't have to be rich
and have three or four cars
You don't have to be a doctor
or a famous movie star
Oh, but you got to be a man
do what a man suppose to do
oooh, refuse to give up now
see all the trials and tribulations through
If you can do all these things,
You're sho' 'nuff uptight

Ooooo- oohooo,
sho' 'nuff her type

No, you don't have to be a doctor
Oh, but you got to be a man

Ooooo- oohooo
