Self Made Man
by Dan Trilk

I told myself , when I was twelve
That I’d never work a 9 to 5
And that I’d never wear uncomfortable ties
Now here I am, I’m a self made man
Well, I seldom have any money
But I can dazzle you with my hands

It’s true what they say, ladies like the green
But them women, man they nothin’ but mean
I got a woman, love me for who I am
Now she gonna fly me to Paris
‘Cos I’m a self made man

Never really had a plan
I just kinda take it slow
Never really took the ball and ran
I just kinda went with the flow

Now I’m forty three and my band is hot
Sometimes I forget how good I got it
Yeah, often I’d rather walk the old straight line
Keep track of my money, keep track of my time
But I believe that I’ve been dealt a pretty good hand
So I’m putting it all in and calling
‘Cos I’m a self made man

Never really had a plan
I just kinda take it slow
Never really took the ball and ran
I just kinda went with the flow

I told myself , when I was twelve
That I’d never work a 9 to 5
And that I’d never wear uncomfortable ties
Now here I am, I’m a self made man
And now I got some money
Yeah I got a little money
You know I’m rolling in the money
And I can still dazzle you with my hands
