"Not That Kind Of Man"
by Tom Tognaci
2011
I
I heard my little girl crying late last night
And I would be lying if I said I thought her boyfriend was Mr. Right
I thought to tell her, Just get him out of your head!
But, I asked my daughter this instead
How many miles would he walk with you,
If the going gets tough?
Would he run from a little rain,
If the weather gets rough?
Would he offer you his coat for comfort,
If the night starts to get cold?
How many ways will he tell you the same things
That you need to hear?
And how many ways will he tell you that he loves you,
till you finally understand?
Well, I can tell you little princess
Hes not that kind of man
II
I heard my baby crying late last night
And I would be lying if I said it didnt make me want to fight
I felt the heat rise up around my head
But I kept my cool and asked instead
Would it break his back to make a living,
To be a family man?
Could he climb back in the saddle,
Not knowing if he can?
Is he the man that will buck the bronco
Or, just a rodeo-ing clown?
How many ways will he tell you the same things
That you need to hear?
And how many ways will he tell you that he loves you
Over and over again?
Well, I can tell you little princess
Hes not that kind of man
