Man Of The World Lyrics - Marc Cohn

I wanna be a man of the world 

With blood in my veins and a hurt in my heart 

Out in the street with the noise and the dirt 

And the ones still lookin' for a brand new start 

Oh, I've been sleeping far too long 

Hiding out in a palace of gold 

Show me one thing before I'm gone 

That can't be bought and can't be sold 

Show me how to come alive 

Show me how to make you mine 

'Cause if you'd only be my girl 

I could be a man of the world 

I could be a man of the world
