Who is the man, making the scene, flashing the green
Livin' it up and living up to his name
Who wants some lovers' gold, silver tone
Givin' it up is his claim to fame

I'm a mystery man, doin' what I can
With a continental international plan
So
Come on now, it's all now
This player's here to stay now
Let me break it down, make you understand
Don't you know your history
I'm feelin', I'm leanin'
This player's here to stay
You're a woman, I'm your man
It ain't no mystery

Who is the guy, lookin' bad
I mean bad
Makin' it up as he goes and he knows
There's you, come around
Turn that frown upside down
Breakin' it up before he gets too old

I'm a mystery man, doin' what I can
With a continental international plan
So
Come on now, it's all now
This player's here to stay now
Let me break it down, make you understand
Don't you know your history
I'm feelin', I'm leanin'
This player's here to stay
You're a woman, I'm your man
It ain't no mystery
Bikinis, cars, cigars and danger
Martini hangover, he ain't no stranger to
London, Paris, New York and Japan
I'm bringing home the bacon in a frying pan
L.A., Rio and Chinatown
If you're down then I'm your

Mystery man, doin' what I can
With a continental international plan
So
Come on now, it's all now
This player's here to stay now
Let me break it down, make you understand
Don't you know your history
I'm feelin', I'm leanin'
This player's here to stay
You're a woman, I'm your man
It ain't no mystery
