  • I knew from the start
    That I loved you with all my heart
    But you were untrue
    You had another lover and she looked just like you
    Bambi, can't you understand?
    Bambi, it's better with a man

    It's so hard to believe
    Maybe it's because you're so young
    Or maybe I'm just too naive
    Who's to say, maybe you're really having fun

    Bambi, can't you understand?
    Bambi, it's better with a man

    Yeah!

    All your lovers, they look just like you
    But they can only do the things that you do
    Come on, baby, and take me by the hand
    I'm gonna show what it's like to be loved by a man

    Bambi, I know what you need
    Bambi, maybe you need to bleed

    Yeah! Writer/s: Demetrius Ross, Prince Rogers Nelson
    Publisher: Universal Music Publishing Group

  • Marylandmenace from New ZealandThe man shreds... On all the instruments... A true GOAT
  • Dan from ChicagoI wonder if this song was about, or in some way inspired by, Lisa.
  • Leo from Westminster 1, MdFor the metal piece about a two-timer named Bambi, this is a tune from the second self-titled Bugs Bunny Looney Tunes Warner album, Prince Rogers Nelson made a loud entrance in Rock and crashed the party with a loud Fender! The man can play guitar! Forget the celebrity, weirdness and his somewhat questionable lifestyle, Prince is a genius and a modern day Beethoven when it comes to music! I rest my case.
  • Jessie from Saldotna, AkTHis song is amazing.
    I love Prince, and I myself and a Lezgirl.
    SO this song is realy great.
    It makes me laugh and smile.
