The Gaslight Anthem Lyrics
"Here Comes My Man"

And how much time do you think that we have?
If I wanted to I could start over again,
let the good night decide who she wants me to find
And I'll never let you drop another tear in my eye

Singing oh sha-la-la-la, oh sha-la-la-la,
listen honey here comes my man
Singing oh sha-la-la-la, oh sha-la-la-la,
listen honey here comes my man, ye

If all my life, I never had a chance,
don't you think I knew about all your pretty girlfriends?
But I waited for you, gave you time to decide,
but you never saw it from anybody else's side
So I packed up my things and I faced up my doubts,
you know I think I will grow my hair back out
Nevermind what you think, nevermind what you like,
I'll take it out to the streets for somebody else to admire

Singing oh sha-la-la-la, oh sha-la-la-la,
listen honey here comes my man
Singing oh sha-la-la-la, oh sha-la-la-la,
listen honey here comes my man

Maybe time will tell you why I got so much hell to sell you
Please, please understand me,
oh you can't just dance around me
Maybe your work will love you,
when I'm just not there to hold you
(one of these days)
Maybe your pride can be your companion
(one of these days)
But I just won't be there to stand for it
Not one more minute will i stand for it

You'll find me singing
Oh shal-la-la-la, oh shal-la-la-la,
listen honey here comes my man
Singing oh shal-la-la-la, oh shal-la-la-la,
listen honey here comes my man
Singing oh shal-la-la-la, oh shal-la-la-la,
listen honey here comes my man
Singing oh shal-la-la-la, oh shal-la-la-la,
listen honey here comes my man
Here comes my man,
here comes my man,
here comes my man,
here comes my man
