C & C Reid

When I wake up, well I know I'm gonna be

   I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next to you

And if I go out, yeah I know I'm gonna be

   I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you

And if I get drunk, yeah I know I'm gonna be

   I'm gonna be the man who gets drunk next to you

And if I haver, yeah I know I'm gonna be

   I'm gonna be the man who's havering to you

Chorus:

And I would walk 500 miles, and I would walk 500 more

Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles to fall down at your door

When I'm workin', yeah I know I'm gonna be

   I'm gonna be the man who's workin' hard for you

And when the money comes in for the work I do

   I'll bring almost every penny home to you

When I come home, yeah I know I'm gonna be

   I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you

And if I grow old, yeah I know I'm gonna be

   I'm gonna be the man who's growing old with you

Chorus

When I'm lonely, yeah I know I'm gonna be

   I'm gonna be the man who's lonely without you

And if I'm dreamin', yeah I know I'm gonna be

   I'm gonna dream about the time when I'm with you

When I go out, yeah I know I'm gonna be

   I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you

And if I come home, yeah I know I'm gonna be

   I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you

I'm gonna be the man who comes back home...to you

Chorus
