It was on [C] a dance party [G] in [D] 1969
[Em] That my mother got [Bm] a dream job [C] for a strong [D] business
[G] And the one who sang the song was the richest man in [D] Johannesburg
[Em] He danced [C] around the fence [D] as best he [G] could
He was a [C] little Elvis [G] with brown and [D] pointed shoes
[Em] He tricked his [B] mother into [C] society's [D] biggest show
[G] So he shared [C] a lark [G] and that was [D] it
[Em] It banged [C] hard on the dinner table [D] and I made a [G] big mess
But soon he was a man, [C]
[G] [D] a [G] Don Johan
[C]
[G] [D] Who [G] could drink [C] himself to the bone, [G] he gave shit and [D] made fun
He [G] was a man
[C]
[E] [D] [G] And that was [C] it, [G] I got a [D] little peace
[Em] But Elvis was [B] too fat, [C] and the mutton [D] was going to rot
[G] And that was [C] not good, because [G] it was not [D] just mother
[Em] Who went and [C] buried the white [D] man with a stomach [G] that was big
And that is [C] all I know [G] about my terrible [D]
father
[Em] He was very [B] fond of girls, [C] but a little [D]
man
[G] He liked [C] to make his [G] mother smile [D] a little
[Em] When the [C] sea was mentioned, [D] he was a [G] handsome man, he was a man
[C] He was a man

[E] [D]
[Em] But even the [Bm] beginning of my life [Am] was a little [Em] original
[C] Yes, the Christian church [G] called it a [C] lack of [D] morality
So [Em] I grew up as [Bm] a young man and [Am] the fat man did not have anything [Em] in common

handsome [G] man
