I know a man
He has brown eyes
Most mornings he gets up

Around sunrise
He likes to put butter
On just about everything

He likes to walk in the park
Listen to the birds sing


I know a man
He has two gorgeous kids
He likes to take them on trips

Like his father did
At the end of the day
They all come over to my place

Where we talk about school
And what happened on MySpace


I know a man
He plays basketball
He's about five feet

Ten inches tall
He tries to grow flowers
They usually don't bloom

He's got a picture of Elvis
On the door to his room


I know a man
He thinks life is good
And everything will be fine

As he knows that it should
And the eyes of the people
And the eyes of the law

Would soon be open
To the things that he saw


I know a man
With a beautiful family
Who knows that someday

Right here in this society
We'll all walk taller
And fences will mend

When I can say proudly
This is my husband


I know a man
