Alejandro Escovedo - Man of the World Lyrics

A prayer in my heart, I was born again
Seventeen lives and one night stands
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah

A man of the world, it ain't no thing
I can take a punch, I can take a swing
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah

You know I'm frustrated
Hot, overrated
Feel life dissipated
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah

It started out, you and I
Duct taped together for one last ride
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah

I wanna hold you but you're on the run
I'd like to keep you but I'm not that dumb, no
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah

You know I'm frustrated
Hot, overrated
Feel life dissipated
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah

You're jumping ahead, then falling behind
And may not know me, I don't need a sign
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah

And a curse in my eye, a crook in my step
Get up from the table but I'm not done yet, no
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah

You know I'm frustrated
Hot, overrated
Feel life dissipated
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah

You know I'm frustrated
Hot, overrated
Feel life dissipated
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
