Alex is the Man

by Ola & The Janglers

on Lime Light (1966), Ola & The Janglers, 1964-1971! (2003)

Alex is the man
Alex understands
Alex picks up all the girls so neatly in his hands
Nowhere else there is a man like Alex

You keep tellin' me about men like Henry (Henry?)
You keep tellin' me about men like George (George?)
But you know that I have too much envy
To turn down and skip a man like George

[Chorus]
Alex is the man
Alex understands
Alex picks up all the girls so neatly in his hands
Nowhere else there is a man like Alex

Lovers like the Rudolph Valentino
Lovers like the [inaudible, mister round?] next door
Open up your eyes and watch the ran out
Says the man that puts them on the floor

[Chorus]
Alex is the man
Alex understands
Alex picks up all the girls so neatly in his hands
Nowhere else there is a man like Alex

You complain about how hard it is
To make up if you should take this man over here
Or in the corner over there
Baby I got news for you
Go back to what you used to do
And find the man who puts them overboard

[Chorus]
Alex is the man
Alex understands
Alex picks up all the girls so neatly in his hands
Nowhere else there is a man like Alex

[Chorus]
Alex is the man
Alex understands
Alex picks up all the girls so neatly in his hands
Nowhere else there is a man like Alex

[Outro]
I'm Alex
Alex it is me
I am the one
I'm Alex
It is me
I am the one

I'm Alex
