  • Be a man can a mystery man
    Be a doll, like a baby doll
    It can't be fun, not anyway
    It can't be found no way at all
    A distant man can't sympathize
    He can't uphold his distant laws
    Due to form on that today
    I got a feeling then I hear this call
    I said

    Neat, neat, neat
    I can't afford no cannon
    Neat, neat, neat
    He can't afford no gun at all
    Neat, neat, neat
    He can't afford no cannon
    Neat, neat, neat
    He ain't got no name to call
    Neat, neat, neat

    No crime if there ain't no law
    No cops left to mess you around
    No more dreams of mystery chords
    No more sight to bring you down
    I got a crazy got a thought in my mind
    My mind's on when she falls asleep
    Feelin' in time in her restless time
    Then these words upon me creep
    I said

    Neat, neat, neat
    I can't afford no cannon
    Neat, neat, neat
    He can't afford no gun at all
    Neat, neat, neat
    He can't afford no cannon
    Neat, neat, neat
    He ain't got no name to call
    Neat, neat, neat

    Ah, neat, neat, neat
    Ah, neat, neat, neat

    Be a man can a mystery man
    I be a doll, like a baby doll
    It can't be fun, not anyway
    It can't be found no way at all
    A distant man can't sympathize
    He can't uphold his distant laws
    Due to form on that today
    I got a feeling then I hear this call
    I said

    Neat, neat, neat
    He can't afford no cannon
    Neat, neat, neat
    He can't afford no gun at all
    Neat, neat, neat
    He can't afford no cannon
    Neat, neat, neat
    He ain't got no name to call
    Neat, neat, neat
    He can't afford no cannon
    Neat, neat, neat
    He can't afford no gun at all
    Neat, neat, neat
    He can't afford no cannon
    Neat, neat, neat
    He ain't got no name to call
