[Verse 1]
My resistance is getting weaker
I just can't stand the pressure
I can't be any meeker
I've got to find me some other treasure

[Chorus]
I need not'ing to be a man
Because I was born a man
And I deserve the right to be
Like any other man
(Yeah)

[Verse 2]
My mind is in such a state
Sometimes it makes me sick, Lord!
At times I've tried to hate
But I don't humble no the trick

[Chorus]
I need not'ing to be a man
I was born a man
And I deserve the right to be
Like any other man

[Verse 3]
Experience taught us wisdom
Thanks God, I've got some life left
I'm getting out a serpent
My soul stands a test
[Chorus]
I need not'ing to be a man
Because I was born a man
And I deserve the right to be
Like any other man
(Yeah)

Woooah! Oooah! Oooh!

[Verse 4]
My resistance is getting weaker
I just can't stand the pressure
I can't be any meeker
I've got to find me some other treasure

[Chorus]
I need not'ing to be a man
Because I was born a man
And I deserve the right to be
Like any other man
(Yeah)

[Verse 5]
My mind in such a state
Sometimes it makes me sick, Lord!
At times I've tried to hate
But I don't humble no the trick
[Chorus]
I need not'ing to be a man
Because I was born a man
And I deserve the right to be
Like any other man
(Yeah)

Woooah! Oooah! Oooh!

[Verse 6]
Experience taught us wisdom
Thanks God, I've got some life left
I'm getting out a serpent
My soul stands a test

[Chorus]
I need not'ing to be a man
Because I was born a man
And I deserve the right to be
Like any other man
(Yeah)
