Michael Jackson & Paul McCartney - The Man (with lyrics)

Another song by Michael and Paul, recorded around 1981 and released in 1983 on Paul's Pipes of Peace album. "The Man" is probably my favorite of their duets - rate and enjoy!

There's a man
Who plays the game of life so well
Ooh, there's such a man
His thoughts you can never tell, ooh

And it's just the way he thought it would be
'cause the day has come for him to be free
Then he laughs, he kicks, then rolls up his sleeves
I'm alive and I'm here forever
This is the man

And it's just the way he thought it would be
'cause the day has come for him to be free
Then he laughs, and kicks, and rolls up his sleeves
I'm alive and I'm here forever
This is the man

There's a man
Everybody thought they knew
Ooh, there's such a man
He's not like me and you, ooh

And it's just the way she thought it would be
As he says, "Something has happened to me"
Then he laughs, he kicks, then rolls up his sleeves
I'm alive and I'm here forever
This is the man

And it's just the way he thought it would be
'cause the day has come for him to be free
Then he laughs, as he smiles, and rolls up his sleeves
I'm alive and I'm here forever
This is the man

Did you know
This man can do anything
Ooh, there's such a man
I wish that we could bring, ooh

And it's just the way he thought it would be
'cause the day has come for him to be free
Then he laughs, he kicks, then rolls up his sleeves
I'm alive and I'm here forever
This is the man

And it's just the way he thought it would be
'cause the day has come for him to be free
Then he laughs, and kicks, and rolls up his sleeves
I'm alive and I'm here forever
This is the man . . .

Great comment. You really are a young switched on person. Keep up the good listening.

Missed this track because I live in St Kitts, West Indies, at the time.

What a bloody fantastic song.

It's amazing not one person mentioned it to me in the 25 years since I came home.

Too busy listening to crap music no doubt - C'mon guys GET A GRIP.

What else did I miss that flew over your head?

Can anybody tell me who plays the electric guitar solo? Thanks. Peace & Love.

I love this song. I am 13 and I really don't listen to today's music except for lady gaga because she is very lyrical and her songs are lyrical puzzels( I mean that in a good way) I wish music we be how they used to be. I love the old fashion beatles and Michael Jackson.
