i went to the reunion
of the cl-ss of ‘84
and i saw my old sweetheart
who said she just divorced
we talked about the good days
and the life we once planed
and then they played a slow one
and she asked me to dance
ten years ago i would not of left her alone
but i just told her about my family back home
when i was a child i played the games that children play
now that i’ve become a man i put those things away
time to take care of what’s at hand
ooo-oo, time to be a man
there’s one that calls me darlin’
and three that call me ‘dad’
i know they’ll stand beside me
in good times and through bad
and knowin’ that they need me
gives me the strength i need
to stand up through the walk of life
and be all i can be
when i was a child i played the games that children play
now that i’ve become a man i put those things away
time to take care of what’s at hand
ooo-oo, time to be a man

when i was a child i played the games that children play
but now that i’ve become a man i put those things away
time to take care of what’s at hand
ooo-oo, time to be a man
ooo-oo, time to be a man
ooo-oo, time to be a man
all right, come on, yeah
