Man of Me

Well, high school got me educated
Still, when I graduated
I didn't have a clue
Did a stand in the Navy
They did their best to break me
Somehow, I 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, racin' cars
Closin' down the local bars
That 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
But now, I see
That lovin' you made a man of me
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 what my heart is for
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, yeah
Made a man of me, wow

I'd still be only lost and lonely
As a boy can be
Can't you see
That lovin' you made a man of me
Lovin' you made a man of me

It made a man of me (Lovin' you)
It made a man of me, yeah (Lovin' you)
(Lovin' you)
(Lovin' you)
(Lovin' you)
(Lovin' you)
(Lovin' you)
(Lovin' you)
