Man of the Woods Lyrics

[Chorus]
I brag about you to anyone outside
But I'm a man of the woods, it's my pride
I'm sorry, baby, you know I try
But I'm a man of the woods, it's my pride

[Verse 1]
Hey, sugar plum, look at where we are
So tonight, if I take it too far, that's okay because you know
(That's okay because you know)
I hear the makin' up's fun
Been a minute since we've had some time to breathe
So if you see another side of me, that's okay because you know
(That's okay because you know)
I hear the makin' up's fun

[Pre-Chorus]
But then your hand's talkin', fingers walkin', down your legs
Hey, there's the faucet
Someone's knockin' like they know
But baby, don't you stop it, yes, I'm watchin'
Your hand slides down the light
And girl, you know

[Chorus]
I brag about you to anyone outside
But I'm a man of the woods, it's my pride
I'm sorry, baby, you know I try
But I'm a man of the woods, it's my pride

[Verse 2]
Well, I got your sweet with a twist of lime
And this one's neat, well, you know that's mine, here we go
And do it twice 'cause you know we like it
And damn anybody if they disagree
They don't understand you're just like me, they don't know
We do it twice 'cause we know we like it

[Pre-Chorus]
But then your hand's talkin', fingers walkin', down your legs
Hey, there's the faucet
Someone's knockin' like they know
But baby, don't you stop it, yes, I'm watchin'
Your hand slides down the light (Light, light)
And girl, you know

[Chorus]
I brag about you to anyone outside
But I'm a man of the woods, it's my pride
I'm sorry, baby, you know I try
But I'm a man of the woods, it's my pride

[Bridge]
How do I ever explain what I've got with you?
I try to find the words but they hide and that's the truth
And nobody ever will understand what we do
There's only one me and you
Come here, hold me
'Cause there's only one me and you
Yeah, there's only one me and you, uh
There's only one me and you
You know there's only one me and you

[Chorus]
I brag about you to anyone outside
But I'm a man of the woods, it's my pride
I'm sorry, baby, you know I try
But I'm a man of the woods, it's my pride

[Outro]
I wrote this to let you know
And I let them feelings show
I'm the man of the woods and you're my pride
Ooh, I can't make them understand
But you know I'm a Southern man
A man of the woods and you're my pride
Ohh, hey, hey
A man of the woods, it's my pride
Now let the beat ride like

About

“Man of the Woods” focuses on Justin Timberlake’s pride about his Tennessee roots and his wife, Jessica Biel. In an interview with Zane Lowe on Beats 1, JT said that his wife Jessica Biel was the main inspiration for his album’s title track:

..[It] was the first song written for the album that was written specifically about her… There’s two love letters on the album. ‘Man of The Woods’ is my love letter to her [Jessica Biel] and ‘Young Man’ as my love letter to my son [Silas].

The music video premiered on February 1, 2018 and was directed by Paul Hunter, who also contributed to the music videos for “Señorita” and “My Love.” JT embraces country life in the video while he runs through a forest, wearing a lumberjack flannel, to reach a log cabin for an old fashioned hoedown.
