Man Alive
Diesel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Open up the door and let me in
Baby, it ain't no sin
Gonna be your lover
No thunder or lightning can stop me now
No one can take me down
Gonna be your lover
Let's spend a little time
It ain't no crime
It's loving that matters
Let me lay it on the line
There's not a man alive with love as justified
And I'm gonna make you believe it
There's not a man alive who's will to satisfy
Is as strong as the will in me
Just you wait and see
Don't break my heart, and I'll let you see
You'll get the best of me
Gonna be your lover
Just give it a chance
Let love make a stand
It'll all come together
It's part of the plan
There's not a man alive with love as justified
And I'm gonna make you believe it
There's not a man alive who's will to satisfy
Is as strong as the will in me
I know you're lost in confusion
I'll be the light that'll make you see
You know this ain't no illusion
You gotta give it to me
I'm gonna make you believe
I'm gonna make you believe
There's not a man alive with love as justified
And I'm gonna make you believe it




There's not a man alive who's will to satisfy
Is as strong as the will in me

Agree 100% :)

Kevin Smith

He was big here back in the day. I was 12 at that time and heard him on the radio often and video hits on Saturday mornings. But there was a lot of competition from other Aussie bands e.g. ACDC, Midnight Oil, INXS, Cold Chisel/Jimmie Barns, The Screaming Jets, the Angels, Crowded House etc. all still in their prime and all competing with American bands on the charts who were also in their prime like the RHCP, Bon Jovi, Guns and Roses, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Metallica, Brian Adams, U 2 (U K) etc.

His guitar 🎸 playing ...very underrated

Amazing guitar solo, licks.
Rediscovering Diesel is the best thing about 2022 so far!

Was so shattered when the Injectors went, what an album Hepfidelity was to maintain my love for this man's music, Legend!

Joe Stafford

I lived in Australia very briefly when I was a kid, and this song and video takes me straight back to being 7 and watching Ten Video Hits in our house in Adelaide :)
