The Making Of A Man Lyrics

[Spoken]
Iron enough to make a nail
Lime enough to paint a wall
Water enough to drown a dog
Sulphur enough to stop the fleas
Potash enough to wash a shirt
Gold enough to buy a bean
Silver enough to coat a pin
Lead enough to ballast a bird
Phosphor enough to light the town
Poison enough to kill a cow
You have
Iron enough to make a nail
And lime enough to paint a wall
But that just isn't enough to make you a man
You have
Water enough to drown a dog
And Sulphur enough to stop the fleas
But that just isn't enough to make you a man
A man has
Strength enough to build a home
And time enough to hold a child
And Love enough to break a heart
You don't have
Strength enough to build a home
Or time enough to hold a child
Or Love enough to break a heart
You have
Potash enough to wash a shirt
And Gold enough to buy a bean
But that just isn't enough to make you a man You have
Silver enough to coat a pin
And Lead enough to ballast a bird
But that just isn't enough to make you a man
A man has
Strength enough to build a home
And time enough to hold a child
And Love enough to break a heart
You don't have
Strength enough to build a home
Or time enough to hold a child
Or Love enough to break a heart
You have
Phosphor enough to light the town
And Poison enough to kill a cow
But that just isn't enough to make you a man
You have
Iron enough to make a nail
And Lime enough to paint a wall
But that just isn't enough to make you a man
A man has
Strength enough to build a home
And time enough to hold a child
And Love enough to break a heart
You don't have
Strength enough to build a home
Or time enough to hold a child
Or Love enough to break a heart...
Or Love enough to break my heart
