Street Corner Savior


If I had knew you before if met you
Then I might have said hello
But I met you and I knew you
Were not the type of girl that I could take home

Can’t show you to my mother
Can’t meet my father
Can’t let you talk to my kid brother
I’m sorry if you don’t understand
It’s just that I’m not that kind-a of man


It doesn’t bother me that you get around
Or that your makeup makes you look like a clown
It’s just that something not right
This is not the way that you should live your life

Can’t show you to my mother
Can’t meet my father
Can’t let you talk to my kid brother
I’m sorry if you don’t understand
It’s just that I’m not that kind of man


You say you’ll change your was for me
Buy why I really can’t see
What is it that I have to offer?
I won’t pay you so why even bother

Can’t show you to my mother
Can’t meet my father
Can’t let you talk to my kid brother
I’m sorry if you don’t understand
It’s just that I’m not that kind of man


It’s unfortunate that this happened the way it did
I was just walking by and you started to cry

If you want I’ll take you away
I show you a new life today
I’ll be the friend you never had
I help you find your lost dad
I’ll do anything I can to be your only man
And we’ll sit watch the sun arise, and you’ll smile glad to be alive

I’ll show you to my mother
You’ll meet my father
You talk it up with my kid brother
And we will live together hand in hand
Because that’s the kind guy I am
