Story Behind The Song
I was seeing a "bad boy" and feeling the guilt of my "addiction" to him. Meanwhile, the furnace man stopped by and "crawled into my crawlspace".....When he came into the house and sat on my couch I came up with the title "The Dirty Man"....it then evolved into a song about my current bad boy lover.
Song Description
This song is a tribute to "The Dirty Man"....a sexy, toxic guy that "got into my system" and left his mark (and his handprints) on me. Listeners are bound to comment with "oh my...yeah...I like that dirty man too" if they're women, and "oh yeah, that's ME" if they are men!

Lyrics
The dirty man
Came over to my place
Crawled into my crawl space
Said hey
Make no mistake
I?ll be in touch
I won?t charge too much
You?re in luck
Chorus:
I?m the dirty man
I?ve got an exemption
From redemption
I?m the dirty man
And you like me
Just the way I am
The dirty man
Got into my system
Imparted his wisdom
Said hey
I?m toxic and
A bad mate to be
But I?ll blow your mind free
Can?t you see
Repeat Chorus
The dirty man
Takes no for an answer
Goes home with a dancer
Says hey
I like your sheets
High thread count...nice
I?ll bring a bottle ?round tonight
Let?s not fight
