Story Behind The Song
I originally wrote this song for my step-dad. He raised me and he, unlike my biological father did everything in his power to make sure we had food, clothes and everything we could ever want and need. I just want to say thank you daddy. This song is dedicated to Darryl Hughes.

Lyrics
He's a real man
Verse 1:
It's eight o'clock in the morning
and he just got, got home
the 12 hour shift working all night, all night long
working hard just to pay the bills
over working, his body kills
Doesn't let his ego get in the way
Chorus:
A real man puts food on the table
a real man does what he's able
always working down to the bone
supplying his family a home
blood,sweat and a few tears
taking away his womans fears
he's a real man he's my daddy
my brother, my lover my friend
Chorus:
A real man puts food on the table
a real man does what he's able
always working down to the bone
supplying his family a home
he's a real man
oh a real man.
