that's what it takes to make a man - eddie cochran lyrics

well it seems i’ve had a lifetime filled with misery
i remember how it all began
the doctor grabbed my feet, slapped me on the cheek
that’s what it takes to make a man
even as a baby they were pinnin’ things on me
daddy called me mother’s little lamb
but you should have seen ’em rave
when i gave the dog a shave
that’s what it takes to make a man
they thought i was a genius, when i first went to school
then i flunked my very first exam
and for all the books i’ve read
there’ s just sawdust in my head
that’s what it takes to make a man
well i finally finished highschool, tried some college too
then i did a hitch with uncle sam
i fought the enemy, sergeants i’ll agree
that’s what it takes to make a man
well i went back to my hometown
where the mayor was my friend
said he knew a job that i could lend
well i got that job alright
cleaned the streets up every night
that’s what it takes to make a man
well i got a new position in a dry good store down town
bought my gal a golden wedding band
but she up and fled the scene
when it turned her finger green
that’s what it takes to make a man
oh yeah, that’s what it takes to make a man
