Written by leonard cohen Available on the tribute album tower of song - the songs of leonard cohen If you want a lover I'll do anything you ask me to And if you want another kind of love I'll wear a mask for you If you want a partner, hold my hand If you want to strike me down in anger Here I stand Baby I'm your man If you want a boxer I will step into the ring for you And if you want a doctor I'll examine every inch of you If you want a driver, climb inside Or if you want to take me for a ride You know you can Baby I'm your man The moon's too bright The chain's too tight The beast won't go to sleep I've been running through these promises to you That I made and I could not keep But a man never got a woman back Not by begging on his knees Or I'd crawl to you baby I'd fall at your feet And I'd howl at your beauty Like a dog in heat And I'd claw at your heart And I'd tear at your sheet I'd say please I'm your man And if you gotta sleep a moment on the road I will steer for you And if yo want to work the street alone I'll disappear for you If you want a father for your child Or only want to walk with me a while Across the sand Baby I'm your man I'm your man If you want a lover, I'm your man If you want a boxer, I'm your man If you want a doctor, I'm your man
