(Eddie Howell)


Hey little lady do you love me

As much as you tell me you do

Oh I'm not them man you think I am

The game I've been playing is through

Hey little girl do you trust me

Oh I'm gonna tell you no lies

I'm gonna come clean, don't make a scene

I've been hiding behind a disguise


Oh I'm the man from Manhattan, ole

The man with a price on his head (lots of money)

The man from Manhattan, the surface is satin

But the lining is laden with lead


Oh I've been a fugitive too long

Running away with my fame

My enemies flee at the sight of me

They shake at the sound of my name


Cause I'm the man from Mahnattan, ole

The man with a price on his head (go and get the deputy)

The man from Manhattan, the surface is satin

But the lining is laden with lead


Don't be afraid, it's only a dream (I'm only dreaming)

An imaginary hero, a vision I've seen

(ah ah ah ah ah) Cuckoo


Oh I know my true destination

The day will eventaully come

I tell you my friend I know my end (will be)

When I'm standing alone in the sight of a gun


Oh I'm the man from Manhattan, ole

The man with a price on his head (lots of money)

The man from Manhattan, the surface is satin

But the lining is laden with lead
