    Backstory:
    Mitch came up with the title/hook idea.  We wanted to write a story that singles in their 20's could identify with.   There comes a time when most of us get tired of the singles/bar hopping scene and want the American Dream.  We also have a version in which the singer has a baby boy instead of a baby girl, if that is more identifiable.  Hope you enjoy!

    MAKIN' A MAN OUT OF ME c2007 Donna Opfer/Mitch Townley I used to hook up at bars Burn my check on fast times fast cars Get up Saturday around noon Hit the gym then pick up drive-thru But now I'd rather hang around the house With my lady and cuddle on the couch Bought a Honda got a 401k Spend my weekends fixin' up the place My baby’s makin' a man out of me Her love is changing my priorities Oh I hurry home to hold her do my best to show her There's no place my heart would rather be Yeah my baby’s makin' a man out of me I’m back in college I got a five year plan Making payments on a ring for her left hand Set the date for the second of June Savin’ up for our honeymoon cruise CHORUS May 4th two years later I fell for another girl She's 7 lbs 2 oz And she’s rockin’ my world CHORUS
