Breadwinner (Cuz I’m a Man)
(J. Yoder)

I am the man head of the family
my wife and children all look up to me
I’m quite the paragon of virtue
that is a hard thing to live up to

I say good morning hon and kiss you
don’t want to go to work I’ll miss you
I won’t forget to get those groceries
here’s fifty dollars for some new shoes

CHORUS:
So it’s see you later honey
I’m off to earn our money
it may require overtime
but I’ll see you live fine
cuz I’m a man

Get to the office at eight fifty nine
my secretary she is looking fine
I say Miss Jones I need some shorthand
I hired her because she gives good shorthand
I slam her up against the files
at first she screams but then she smiles
I knock her down and she gets up again
she lays a paperweight across my chin

CHORUS
Hello I’ll be home late dear
have to stay here
this extra work I hate to do
but I’m doing it for you
cuz I’m a man

Miss Jones comes with me on my business trips
she wears my suits, I dress up in her slips
I say my wife can’t understand me
she says you naughty boy, unhand me

CHORUS
Hello I’m home again hon
this trips get me undone
look at me, I’m half dead
but I got to win that bread
cuz I’m a man


The women sang “Cuz I’m a Girl,” the guys had this Cisco number. (If you think this one’s out of line, you should hear his love song, “I Wanna See You Die.”) Let’s hear it for Dave, plucked from high school just two weeks earlier to become our new bass player.
