Lyrics:
My guy is kind,
but he will not fall.
I've seen him get into more than one bar room brawl.
But that's just one of his many charms
I feel safe when I'm cradled in his arms.
He would never hit me with his fists,
never would I receive a strike from his hand,
but I would be lyin' if I told you I didn't love a firm man.
I know you would protect me
to the fullest extent.
When someone tries to get with me,
you always start to vent.
But I know you adore me so,
and that's just not my perspective.
When other gents get fresh with me, you always get protective.
You never would give me a strike from your hand, but I gotta tell you, I love a firm man.
You know how to stand up for yourself. For me, you'd get in a scrap. With you as my warrior, you'll never resist an evening in my lap.
You would never give me a strike from your hand, but I gotta tell you, I love a firm man.
You have a great life. You're in your prime, like Charles Atlas you seem to resist time. But you have that come hither alluring gaze, which keeps me wanting you for many days.
You would never give me a strike from your hand, but I gotta tell you, I love a firm man.
With all your strength that I see,
you still treat me so delicately.
But when we finish up our night, you sir are a true delight.
We snuggle under the blankets long after the sun sinks in the West, for you in the covers I will do my best. This will feel oh so right, you are firm and I will stay tight.
You would never give me a strike from your hand, but I gotta tell you.,
I love a...
you are a...
you will always be my,
firm man!
