There he goes, the modern knight

The boy's despair, the girl's delight

The women's home companion is his name

He's a clown, he's a wit
The co-eds say that he's got it

Corda, Flo, Millie,
And what he does to flappers is a shame

A dirty shame

Walks collegiate, collegiate clothes
He's a ladies man

Gets that swagger gets that pose
He's a ladies man

As a lover the boy's a star
When he gets 'em inside his car

He goes over the course in par
He's a ladies man

In a pinch, in a clinch
Better leave yourself lots of headroom
Put on the breaks
When he mistakes
A rumble seat for a bedroom

Walks collegiate, collegiate clothes
He's a ladies man
Gets that swagger and gets that pose
He's a ladies man
Got a lot of energy and lots of class
He would be a catch for any lucky lass
But 'till he pops the question better block that pass
With a kick
Or a boot
Or a laugh or a hoot even though he is cute

He's a man!
He's man's man
What a man, what a man, what a man!
