"Family Man" es originaria de Mike Oldfield. Es una de esas raras excepciones en su catálogo; que está cantada, vamos. Su interprete es Maggie Reilly, habitual colaboradora del músico inglés. Fue editada en single en 1982 y obtuvo un moderado éxito en el Renio Unido, llegando al #45.
Pero mayor suerte tuvo la versión que un año más tarde harían Daryl Hall y John Oates para su aclamado álbum "H2o", La llevarían hasta el #6 en la lista Billboard americana y al #15 en Reino Unido.
Además que para mi superaron a la original.
Esta semana "Family Man" es la elegida como canción de la semana.
Feliz escucha, feliz semana.
Hall & Oates
She had sulky smile
She took her standard pose as she presented herself
She had sultry eyes
She made it perfectly plain that she was his for a price
She wore hurt surprise
As she rechecked her make up to protect herself
Dropped her price and pride
She made it totally clear that she was his for a night
And my bark is much worse than my bite
He said, leave me alone, I'm a family man
If you push me too far I just might
It would have worked on any other man around
He looked her up and down
She knew he couldn't decide if he should hold his ground
And my bark is much worse than my bite
He said, leave me alone, I'm a family man
If you push me too far I just might
Unlike her opening move, her final exit line
He waited much too long
But by the time he got his courage up she was gone
And my bark is much worse than my bite
He said, leave me alone, I'm a family man
If you push me too far I just might
And I don't think I want you tonight
He said, leave me alone, I'm a family man
If you push me too far I just might
And my bark is much worse than my bite
He said, leave me alone, I'm a family man
If you push me too far I just might
Don't leave me alone 'cause I got to go hungry
