HE'S THE MAN (HE'S TALL AND COOL)
(Vivian Green)

Vivian Green & Her Trio - 1948


He may be your man but he comes to see me sometime
He may be your man but he comes to see me sometime
He comes so often, I'm beginnin' to think he's mine

He's yours, he's mine, he's somebody else's too
He's yours and he's mine and he's somebody else's too
If you don't mind, I'll have him clean away from you

'Cause that man rocks me, he rocks me with a steady roll
He rocks me, rocks me with a steady roll
When he rocks me, Lord, he satisfies my soul

(Piano Solo)

He's long and tall, just like a willow tree
He's long and tall, just like a willow tree
He's tall and cool, that man sends me

If that's your man, tie 'im to your side
If that's your man, tie 'im, tie 'im, tie 'im, tie 'im to your side
If he flags my train, I'm sure gonna let him ride

Now he don't drink or gamble, he don't run around
When it comes to good lovin' he can really go to town
That's the truth baby, I swear I wouldn't lie
I love that man, gee, I hope to die
