Lyrics of Man needs woman

Man needs woman
(kelso herston)
'66 johnny bienstock music, bmi

Now napoleon made a big scene
And in battle he acted mean
But when the smoke cleared you'd find him sitting
By his sweet little josephine

A man needs a woman to hold his hand
A man needs a woman to understand
A man needs a woman by his side
A man needs a woman all the time

Now that outlaw robin hood
Would spend that money if he could
But maria that outlaws sweetheart
Made old robin promise he'd be good

A man needs a woman to hold his hand...

Now there's a history full of mistakes
But how many did women make
I'll bet a man said good fire
When they burned poor old joan at the stakes

A man needs a woman to hold his hand...

A man needs a woman to hold his hand
A man needs a woman to understand
