Men will be men

And they'll call me the governor

I walk through the bar

And I'll buy the next round

Because this is my ship

And I say it's my destiny

And we'll all go up and go down

We go down, go down

Through the town and back up through the avenues

And into the places where people don't stay

Go visit the king and then leave through the window

Go hang with the gang and get lost in the fray

Andy is a saint

Or a savage I forget

Depends on the day

And if he's eaten yet

He's something to see

When he's first out of bed

Not that I'd know

I've just heard it said

Said that men will be men...

Spider's the guy

With a hand over gun

He'd show me how

But I don't want one

He's also polite

For a second storey man

And he's changed his spots

As much as anyone can

We know men will be men...

Come and sit with the horse

And admire the view

Drink down these biers

I think you had a few

Yes, and don't look at me

I'm not selling today

Over the crowd

Hear the bartender say

Say that men will be men...

Men will be men...

Go down, go down, go down
