The Rebel Black Dot Song o' Being a Better Man

Gregory Porter, "Real Good Hands" courtesy iTunes, Free Single of the Week (The Last Angry Man)

Commentary:
"Mama, don't you worry 'bout your daughter,
'Cause you're leaving her in real good hands,
I'm a real good man,
Now the picture of this man is slowly coming into view.

"Papa, don't you fret and don't forget
That one day you was in my shoes,
Somehow you paid your dues,
Now you're the picture of a man that I someday wanna be.

"I know it's hard, watching the changes in our lives,
But I wanna make your daughter my wife…

"…Now you're the picture of the man that I someday wanna be,
And the picture of this man is surely coming into view,
And the picture of my wife is slowly coming into view,
And the picture of this love is surely coming into view,
Yeah, the picture of this love is surely coming into view…"
