Oscar Brown, Jr. - “A Ladiesman”
and have em all consider me
a ladies man
i dreamed of jeannie with delight
and Mary moanin in the night
as i became with all my might
a ladies man
developing into a fuller flower
this throbbing, thrusting manly power
consumed my every waking hour
a ladies man
i felt the urge! that awful itch!
it mounted to a fever pitch!
I had girls, no matter which!
a ladies man
ahh, but the hottest fever cools,
those who don’t face that fact are fools
for in all men time overules
a ladies man
what once was warm began to chill
as father time enforced his will
until i wondered am i still
a ladies man
at first i tried to hide my loss
with girls who’d never come across
a ladies man
but they moved with too quick a step
i needed patience more than pep
to keep alive my fading rep
a ladies man
oh don’t get me wrong, I’m not dead
my shoulders hold a dam good head
so joy has not completely fled
a ladies man
but, it can never be the same
the vigor’s vanished from my game
for reminiscing can you blame
a ladies man
i look back at the life I’ve led
what might my powers have got instead
had i not shot so much in bed
a ladies man
what tricky trade might i have tried
had i not lain pre-occupied
but then, who’s ever satisfied
a ladies man
the women i made, frequently
each in her heart held (secretly)
that she was really making me
a ladies man
a woman feels (a man may guess)
that she conceals beneath her dress
a trap, with which she can possess
a ladies man
she shows the bait
she throws the lure
there’s no escaping, that’s for sure
you’re never really free when you’re
a ladies man
each fellow follows his own star
but take no appetite too far
that’s sound advice in case you are
a ladies man
but, you call all this sour grapes
devote yourself to willing rapes
and never mind what all escapes
a ladies man
all youth must feel betrayed by age
I’m reading from a later page
and you cant hear me at your stage
a ladies man
therefore my boy enjoy your prime
until that fateful date and time
when you can claim no longer I’m
a ladies man
hey, there’s a beauty, don’t you agree?
got quite a body, hasn’t she?
well, sock it to her once for me,
ladies man
ha ha ha
a ladies man

From Bling47.com:
I was approached by Universal UK a few years back about doing an album for TV licensing. They asked me to chop up and recompose library tracks from their archive – sounds like a dream, right?
I wanted to do epic, upbeat tracks that would go well with the cinematic environment they were meant for. Coultrain and I whipped up this track with the legendary Paul Randolph on bass.
