Well High School got me educated

Still went and graduated

I didn't have a clue

Did a stint in the Navy

They did their best to break me

Somehow made it through

I've had some hard knocks

I've been around the block

But baby I believe

That Lovin you made a man of me

Raisin' hell racing cars

Closin' down the local bars

That's what I used to do

Family told me settle down

Find yourself some solid ground

Where you can put down some roots

Back then I thought love

Was only sissy stuff

Now I see that

That lovin you made a man of me

That lovin you made a man of me

I don't know what it is you do

But every time I'm holdin you

I know my heart is sworn

I'm the one you lean on

Got to be strong

It ain't just about me anymore

Well Goodbye to my blind immaturity

Lovin' you made a man of me

Made a man of me

Made a man of me

I'd still be only

Lost and lonely

As a boy can be

Can't you see

Lovin' you made a man of me

Lovin' you made a man of me

Made a man of me

Made a man of me
