Let me tell you baby, I sure know how to please a woman, yes I do now 
Now I can make you feel better than you've ever felt before, yes I can now 
Now when I start lovin', women hate for me to stop 
A whole lot of men envy me for what I've got 
Ow! I'm a man and a half; that's what I am, a man and a half 

Now look here 
When I walk, the birds and the bees stop lovin' and look at me now, look here 
When I talk, the whole wide world listen to my words, huh 
I'm a man like any other man, I say without a doubt 
Wow, what makes me different is the hand that knocks women out 
I'm a man and a half; I'm trapped up in one; no brash, just facts 

Only once in a lifetime a man like me comes along 
Shakespeare wrote poems about me even before I was born 
Thunder gave me a lift and lightnin' knocked on your door 
Your chance in a lifetime, woman, might not have a number 
To be loved by a man and a half, hey that's what I am, look here 
A man, a camel went across the desert and there was no one in sight 
Let me tell y'all one thing: the camel died tryin' 
But your man and a half is here lovin' you tonight 
Good God, I'm a man and a half, a man (shouting)
