Letra The Man In Me

La canción The Man in Me fue escrita e interpretada por Bob Dylan, formando parte del álbum New Morning de 1970. La pista ganó más notoriedad tras ser incluida en la banda sonora de la película The Big Lebowski, de los hermanos Coen, en 1998. La canción reflexiona sobre la transformación personal y la redención, temas recurrentes en el trabajo de Dylan en ese momento.

The man in me will do nearly any task
And as for compensation there's little he would ask
Take a woman like you
To get through to the man in me

Storm clouds are raging all around my door
I think to myself I might not take it any more
Take a woman like your kind
To find the man in me

But oh what a wonderful feeling
Just to know that you are near
Sets my a heart a-reeling
From my toes up to my ears

The man in me will hide sometimes to keep from bein' seen
But that's just because he doesn't want to turn into some machine
Take a woman like you
To get through to the man in me

(repeat and fade)
