Band, The - Mannish Boy Lyrics






Ooohhh Yeah! Oh Yeah.

Everythin', everythin', everythin's gonna be alright this mornin'
Ooh yeah, whoo

Now when I was a young boy, at the age of five
My mother say I was, gonna be the greatest man alive
But now I'm a man, way past 21
Want you to believe me woman,
I had lot's of fun
I'm a man
I spell M, A, child N
That represent man
No B, (no) O child, Y
That mean mannish boy
Man, yeah
I'm a full grown man
Man
I'm a natural born lovers man
Man
I'm a rollin' stone
Man
I'm a hoochie coochie man

Sittin' on the outside, just me and my mate
You know I'm made to move honey,
come up two hours late
Wasn't that a man
I spell M, A child, N
That represent I'm grown
No B, O child, Y
That mean mannish boy
Man, (yeah)
I'm a full grown man
Man
I'm a natural born lovers man
Man
I'm a rollin' stone
Man, (yeah)
I'm a hoochie coochie man

Well, well, well, well,
The line I shoot will never miss
When I make love to a girl,
she can't resist
I think I go down,
to old Kansas Stew
I'm gonna bring back my second cousin,
that little Johnny Cocheroo
All you little girls,
sittin'out at that line
I can make love to you girl,
in five minutes time
Ain't that a man (yeah)
I spell M, A child, N
That represent man
No B (no), O child, Y
That mean mannish boy
Man
I'm a full grown man
Man
I'm a natural born lovers man
Man
I'm a rollin' stone
Man-child
I'm a hoochie coochie man

well, well, well, well
well, well, well, well
well, well, well, well
hurry

[Robertson:] Wasn't that a man; Muddy Waters!

    Roberston seemed to be the musical director for most of the show.
    ....Also probably drugs. Lots of drugs

    damn right

    M.... ....

    Allowing subversive commies to still exist.

    M.... ....

    @Useful Vidiots : idiot, Muddy Waters was a commie. Commie with big balls. Why don't you grow a pair.

  39. s.... h....

    what a voice, unreal!!!!

    s.... h....

    sam hamdan man I do remember my very first time , when I lost my virginity the first thing that came to my mind was Muddy Waters voice singing “I’m a man” .... probably this song is one of the most powerful song in our history, his voice is indeed unreal !

  40. J.... S....

    Who is on the guitar beside Robbie? And who is playing the harmonica - (I think Butterfield but I'm not sure)?

    J.... S....

    Paul Butterfield on harmonica, Bob Margolin on guitar.

  41. N.... O....

    greatest song ever

    N.... O....

    Could be.

    Might... might just... fuckin' well be.

  42. 2.... ....

    Rythm far too smooth for Muddy. Bob Margolin trying to tell Robbie Robertson to play it a little bit harder is quite funny.

    2.... ....

    2quundar i was wondering why he was giving him the stink eye thanks for the explanation

  43. s.... ....

    When working on The Last Waltz, camera operators were instructed to turn their cameras off on different intervals, in order to save battery life. One of these instances was during Muddy Waters's set, but Waters's outstanding performance led director Martin Scorsese to spontaneously change his mind, and ordered all cameras to be turned on. Because the cameras took several minutes to fully warm up, most caught only the last few bars of Waters's performance. Kovács, however, either did not hear or disregarded orders to shut down his camera, and was the only cameraperson on set who managed to film Waters's entire performance. *per Wikipedia*

    s.... ....

    and, wonderfully, that one-shot effect really makes you feel like you're standing right there with them.
    i always thought the best way to film concerts to just linger in one spot as long as possible, close enough to see what the musicians are doin', and far enough away that your brain starts to think it's actually there.
    deliciousness

    s.... ....

    sirstrongbad Kovacs gots the mans back.... Yeah!!!

    s.... ....

    Great camera guy! He knew

    s.... ....

    @Christopher Rogers If you like it that's fine, but it's a crap song.

    s.... ....

    DadisDad you’re a crap person..

  44. l.... ....

    muddy,,,,,, robbie: "...wasn`t that a man!."__
