Be a man about it!
My hearts ringing like a telephone
Pick it up and dial in the answer
Oh Im sick and tired of being alone
Let me know if love is what youre after

Just be a man about it
You dont have to worry
I wont turn you down
Just be a man about it
Oh dont complicate it
Let me know youll be around

I took you from the number one
When you said youd be with me forever
But I dont appreciate the cost that I am paying
For your being clever

So be a man about it
Oh dont complicate it
You dont have to lead me on
Just be a man about it
Just want you to love me right
You cant go wrong

If you just be a man about it
You dont have to worry
I wont turn you down
Just be a man about it
Oh dont complicate it
Let me know youll be around

We could really have a good thing going
Though we dont know where it will lead
But we, weve got to keep the communication flowing
But thats not all I need
So wontcha

Just be a man about it
You dont have to worry
I wont turn you down
Just be a man about it
Oh dont complicate it
Let me know youll be around

So be a man about it
Oh dont complicate it
You dont have to lead me on
Just be a man about it
Just want you to love me right
You cant go wrong

You just be a man... (break)

We could really have a good thing going
Though we dont know where it will lead
But we, weve got to keep the communication flowing
But thats not all I need
So wontcha

Be a man about it
