I'm gonna put it to you plain as I can
I've never been good at fakin' my hand
I'm strong and I'm smart and I know who I am
And I want a man

I want to feel the weight of his arm
I want to be swept away by the strength of his charm
I want someone who can see me for the woman that I am

I want a man

I want a man who's been around this world
I want a man who knows the difference between a woman and a girl
He's waitin' somewhere breathless for the chance to watch me unfurl
I want a man

I want a man

I want someone strong enough to be soft
I want someone soft enough to be tough
I don't want a boy who wants a mama
Or a daddy who wants a child
I want a man
I want a wild, wild man

I'm gonna meet the eyes of the wolf
I'm gonna wait for him to call my bluff
And we're not gonna stop until we get enough
I want a man

I want a man

I'm gonna put it to you plain as I can
