Miracle Man

You never asked me what I wanted

You only asked me why

I never thought that so much trouble

Was restin' on my reply

I could say it was the rights when I was lonely

And you were the only one who'd come

I could tell you that I like your sensitivity

When you know it's the way that you walk



(CHORUS) Why do you have to say there there's always someone

Who can do it better than I can?

But don't you think that I know that walking on the water

Won't make me a miracle man?



Baby's gotta have the things she wants

You know she's gotta have the things she loves

She's got a ten-inch bamboo cigarette holder

And her black patent leather gloves

And I'm doing everything just tryin' to please her

Even crawling around on all fours

Oh, I thought by now that it was gonna be easy

But she still seems to want for more



(REPEAT CHORUS)

Oh yeah



Never given you a bad reputation

Just because you've never been denied

You try to say you've done it all before

Baby, you know that you just get tired

Yet everybody loves you so much, girl

I just don't know how you stand the strain

Oh I-I'm the one who's here tonight

And I don't wanna do it all in vain



(REPEAT CHORUS)

Oh yeah

A miracle man

(REPEAT AND FADE)
