Lover Man(Album Version) - Sonny Stitt

There's a devil waiting outside your door
How much longer
There's a devil waiting outside your door
How much longer
It is bucking and braying and pawing at the floor
How much longer
And he's howling with pain and crawling up the walls
How much longer
There's a devil waiting outside your door
How much longer
And he's weak with evil and broken by the world
How much longer
He's shouting your name and asking for more
How much longer
There's a devil waiting outside your door
How much longer
Loverman
Since the world began
Forever Amen
Till end of time
Take off that dress
I'm coming down
I'm your loverman
Cause I am what I am what I am what I am what I am
L is for love baby
O is for only you that I do
V is for loving virtually all that you are
E is for loving almost everything that you do
R is for rape me
M is for murder me
A is for answering all of my prayers
N is for knowing your lovermans going to
Be the answer to all of yours
Loverman
Till the bitter end
While empires burn down
Forever and ever and ever and ever ever Amen
I'm your loverman
So help me baby
So help me
Cause I am what I am what I am what I am what I am
I'm your loverman
There's a devil crawling along your floor
How much longer
There's a devil crawling along your floor
How much longer
With a trembling heart he's coming through your door
How much longer
With his straining ***in his jumping paw
How much longer
There's a devil crawling along your floor
How much longer
And he's old and he's stupid and he's hungry and he's sore
And he's blind and he's lame and he's dirty and he's poor
Gimme more gimme more gimme more
How much longer
There's a devil crawling along your floor
Loverman
Here I stand
Forever Amen
Cause I am what I am what I am what I am
Forgive me baby
My hands are tied
And I got no choice no no no no
I got no choice no choice at all
I'll say it again
L is for love baby
O is for O yes I do
V is for virtue so I aingt gonna hurt you
E is for even if you want me to
R is for render unto me baby
M is for that which is mine
A is for any old how darling
N is for any old time
Loverman
I got the masterplan
To take off your dress
And be your man
Seize the throne Seize the mantle Seize that crown
Cause I am what I am what I am what I am yes I am
I'll be your loverman
There's a devil laying by your side
How much longer
There's a devil laying by your side
How much longer
You might think he's asleep but take a look at his eyes
How much longer
And he wants you darling to be his bride
How much longer
There's a devil lying by your side
How much longer
Loverman Loverman Loverman
I'll be your loverman
Till the end of time
Till the empires burn down
Forever Amen
I'll be your loverman I'll be your loverman
I'm your loverman I'm your loverman
I'm your loverman I'm your loverman
Loverman
I'm your loverman I'm your loverman
I'm your loverman I'm your loverman
Yes I'm your loverman
Loverman Loverman
Forever Amen Loverman
Loverman
How much longer
