This is a song about sex and the most he does is unbutton his shirt a bit and lower his pants, nowadays its like they got to go the whole nine yards and “wiggle”everything they got, so much class back then

I don’t care how manly you are, you can be the straightest man in the world, but you got to admit his voice is damn sexy @ 2:22, that’s what the oldies music used to do people, make a straight man think that his voice is sexy
