It's My Man
Mickey Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, the sun's gonna come up tomorow
And I'm gonna live to see it shine
I won't stop livin' just because you're leavin'
It's just a matter of makin' up my mind.

My world will keep turnin' without you
Somehow I'll forget you in time
If not today then I will someday
It's just a matter of makin' up my mind.

I can survive and get over you
Perhaps not now but there'll come a time
For I can do anything that I have to do
It's just a matter of makin' up my mind.





It's just a matter of makin' up my mind...

Overall Meaning

The song "It's My Man" by Mickey was released in 1972 and is a classic example of a heartbreak anthem. The lyrics are about a woman who is dealing with the pain of a breakup but is determined to move on with her life. She acknowledges that it won't be easy, but she is willing to make the effort to reframe her mindset and find joy in her own life again. The first verse sets the stage for the song, as she talks about how the sun will still rise tomorrow and she will still be alive to see it. This is a symbol of hope, as it represents the idea that life goes on, even in the face of obstacles.


The second verse of the song speaks to the idea that she will eventually forget the person who has left her. She doesn't know when it will happen, but she is confident that it will. This can be seen as a form of self-empowerment, as she is taking control of her own emotions and refusing to let the person who hurt her hold power over her forever. The third verse is perhaps the most powerful, as she declares her ability to survive and move on. She knows that it won't be easy, but she is determined to make it happen. The final line of the song, "It's just a matter of makin' up my mind," encapsulates the sentiment of the entire song. It is about the power of choice and the ability to change one's thoughts and emotions.

Lyrics:
It's my man,
It's my man,
Everybody wants to have him
Never thought that it could happen
Luck has turned around, Luck has turned around
He's the one that I've been needing
Not a day that I can't believe it
I don't want another, want another lover

He never makes life complicated
What I need to, hear he says it
Every night he drives me crazy, why?
It's my man,
I don't want another, want another lover
It's my man,
I don't want another, want another lover
man, man, man, yeah
man, man, man, yeah
I know it wont get no beter
Make a promisses, not forever
Baby I'm down down, baby I'm down down
Hear me screaming, hear me shouting
I can't go a day without it
I'm telling you now, telling you now
He never makes life complicated
What I need to, hear he says it
Every night he drives me crazy, why?
It's my man,
I don't want another, want another lover
It's my man,
I don't want another, want another lover
man, man, man, yeah
man, man, man, yeah
Each and every day,
Boy you make me wanna say



Neurone Scaduto

Final part:
Boy you make me wanna say
All about the joy you bring to me
You keep me on a high
Each and every night
Boy I need yo by my side
It's my man
ohooh
I don't want another
Don't want other lover
It's my man
ohooh
I don't want another
Don't want other lover
It's my man
(music)
It's my man
(music)
I don't want another
Don't want other lover
I don't want another
Don't want other lover
