But I know what I am, and I'll bet I'm a man.
But I know what I am, and I'm glad I'm a man.
But I know what I am, in bed I'm a man
But I know what I am, and I'm glad I'm a man.
But I know when I go to bed, I'm a man.
But I know what I am, and I'm glad I'm a man.
C O N A cola
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance

She walked up to me and she asked me to dance
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said Lola

I don't know what I am but I know I'm a man. Lola
But I know what I am, in the bed I'm a man and so is Lola.
I looked at her, and she agreed.
I looked at her and she at me
I met her in a club down in Lonesome.
I met her in a club down in Old Soho.
I met her in a club down in Osaka
I met her in a club down in old SoHo
I met her in a club down in otto, oh
I met her in a club down in old Soho
I met her in a club; she was a sure ho.
I met her in a club down in old Soho.
I met her in club down in Notam Hall.
I met her in a club down in Old Soho.
I'd left home just a week before
And I never ever saw a woman before
Well, Lola smiled and took me by the hand
And said, 'Pretty boy, I can see your gland.'
Hey, and I'd left home just a week before
And I'd never ever kissed a woman before
Well, Lola smiled and took me by the hand
And said, 'Little boy, gonna make you a man.'
I'm a man, I'm a man and so is Lola.
I'm glad I'm a man, and so is Lola.
I'm not the world's most passionate man
But I know what I am, and I'm glad I'm a man
And so is Lola
I'm not the world's most masculine man
But I know what I am, and I'm glad I'm a man
And so is Lola
NOT misheard, two different verses.
In a guttural voice, she said, 'Lola'.
In a dark, brown voice, she said, 'Lola'.
In bed I'm a man and so is Lola
I'm glad I'm a man and so is Lola
I’m not the world’s most masculine man
But I know what I am, I’m a man, I’m a man,
So is Lola.
Well I'm not the world's most masculine man
But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man
And so is Lola
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance.
I asked her her name and in a backward glance she said Lola.
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance.
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said, 'Lola'.
She walked up to me with a bulge in her pants
I told it to tame, but in a dark brown voice, it said 'Gonads'.
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice, she said, 'Lola'.
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like Jerrico-La.
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry cola.
