[00:00:00] That's What It Takes To Make A Man (2009 Digital Remaster) - Jerry Capehart

[00:00:08] Well it seems I've had a lifetime

[00:00:10] Filled with misery

[00:00:13] I remember how it all began

[00:00:16] The doctor grabbed my feet

[00:00:18] Slapped me on the cheek

[00:00:21] That's what it takes to make a man

[00:00:25] Even as a baby

[00:00:26] They were pinnin' things on me

[00:00:29] Daddy called me mother's little lamb

[00:00:33] But you should have seen 'em rave

[00:00:35] When I gave the dog a shave

[00:00:37] That's what it takes to make a man

[00:00:41] They thought I was a genius

[00:00:43] When I first went to school

[00:00:45] Then I flunked my very first exam

[00:00:49] And for all the books I've read

[00:00:50] There' s just sawdust in my head

[00:00:53] That's what it takes to make a man

[00:00:57] Well I finally finished highschool

[00:00:59] Tried some college too

[00:01:01] Then I did a hitch with uncle Sam

[00:01:05] I fought the enemy sergeants I'll agree

[00:01:10] That's what it takes to make a man

[00:01:13] Well I went back to my hometown

[00:01:15] Where the mayor was my friend

[00:01:18] Said he knew a job that I could lend

[00:01:21] Well I got that job alright

[00:01:23] Cleaned the streets up every night

[00:01:26] That's what it takes to make a man

[00:01:29] Well I got a new position

[00:01:32] In a dry good store down town

[00:01:34] Bought my gal a golden wedding band

[00:01:38] But she up and fled the scene

[00:01:40] When it turned her finger green

[00:01:42] That's what it takes to make a man

[00:01:44] Oh yeah

[00:01:46] That's what it takes to make a man

[00:01:48] Oh yeah

[00:01:50] That's what it takes to make a man

[00:01:52] Oh yeah
