  • I'm so glad you're awake
    That you're not like the others
    'Cause they're so straight-laced
    And no fun
    And gosh, that's nice
    That lingerie
    Makes me feel like
    Oh, I don't know

    You're a very pretty thing
    You remind me of someone
    You must have heard some awful nasty things about me, but

    What I can do for you
    There's no one else on God's green earth can do
    What I can do for you
    There's no one else on God's green earth can do

    Just ask anybody
    They'll tell you that it's true
    There's no one else on earth
    Can do the things that I can do for you

    For you, for you (for you)
    For you, for you
    For you, for you
    For you, for you (for you)
    For you, for you
    For you, for you
    For you, for you
    For you, for you

    You're never gonna make it
    All by yourself
    You're gonna need a friend
    You're gonna need my help
    I have so much to offer
    If you just be nice
    If you do what I say
    And don't make me say it twice

    Do you mind if I just
    Rub my hand up thus
    Come on, just my hand
    Come on, just my hand
    You gotta understand
    I'm gonna be your man
    I'm gonna be your man

    I'm gonna be your man (you're gonna need me)
    I'm gonna be your man (I'm gonna make you understand)
    I'm gonna be your man (yeah, I'm gonna be your man)
    I'm gonna be your man (I'm gonna be)
    I'm gonna be your man (I'm gonna be your man)

    What I can do for you
    There's no one else on God's green earth can do
    What I can do for you
    There's no one else on God's green earth can do

    Just ask anybody
    They'll tell you that it's true
    There's no one else on earth
    Can do the things that I can do for you

    For you, for you (for you)
    For you, for you
    For you, for you
    For you, for you (no one else on earth)
    For you, for you (can do those things)
    For you, for you (that I can do)
    For you, for you
    For you, for you (I can do for you)
    For you, for you
    For you, for you
    For you, for you
    For you, for you
    For you, for you (come on, just my hand)
    For you, for you
    For you, for you (you gotta understand)
    For you, for you (I'm gonna be your man)
    For you, for you (I'm gonna be your man)
    For you, for you
    For you, for you
    For you, for you
    For you, for you
    For you, for you
    For you, for you
    For you, for you Writer/s: David Francis Baerwald, Sheryl Suzanne Crow
