Family Man Lyrics

[00:00.46] She had a sulky smile,
[00:03.48] She took a standard pose as she presented herself.
[00:07.74] She had sultry eyes,
[00:10.88] She made it perfectly plain that she was his for a price.
[00:14.42] But he said, "Leave me alone, I'm a family man,
[00:18.26] And my bark is much worse than my bite!"
[00:21.86] He said, "Leave me alone, I'm a family man.
[00:25.51] If you push me too far, I just might..."
[00:30.00]
[00:59.25] She wore hurt surprise
[01:02.55] As she re-checked her make-up to protect herself.
[01:06.73] She showed less than pride,
[01:09.88] She made it totally clear that she was his for a price.
[01:13.54] But he said, "Leave me alone, I'm a family man,
[01:17.29] And my bark is much worse than my bite!
[01:20.83] Please just leave me alone, I'm a family man.
[01:24.64] If you push me too far, I just might..."
[01:28.78] She gave him her look
[01:31.95] That would have worked on any other man around.
[01:36.33] He could not mistake,
[01:39.23] She wanted to go back with him and spend the night.
[01:42.98] But he said, "Leave me alone, I'm a family man,
[01:46.75] And my bark is much worse than my bite!
[01:50.35] Please just leave me alone, I'm a family man.
[01:54.17] If you push me too far, I just might..."
[01:58.78]
[02:27.82] She turned, tossed her head and then
[02:31.31] She started to make her final exit line.
[02:35.11] She showed real disdain,
[02:38.44] As if explaining again she could be his for a price.
[02:42.06] But he said, "Leave me alone, I'm a family man,
[02:45.72] And my bark is much worse than my bite!"
[02:49.42] He said, "Leave me alone, I'm a family man.
[02:53.13] If you push me too far, I just might..."
[02:56.71] But he said, "Leave me alone, I'm a family man,
[03:00.57] And my bark is much worse than my bite!"
[03:04.12] He said, "Leave me alone, I'm a family man.
[03:07.93] If you push me too far, I just might..."
[03:11.53] But he said, "Leave me alone, I'm a family man,
[03:15.28] And my bark is much worse than my bite!"
[03:18.85] He said, "Leave me alone, I'm a family man.
[03:22.69] If you push me too far, I just might..."
[03:26.34] He said, "Leave me alone, I'm a family man,
[03:30.09] And my bark is much worse than my bite!"
[03:33.67] He said, "Leave me alone, I'm a family man.
[03:37.38] If you push me too far, I just might!"
[03:40.28]
