"She's a Girl and I'm a Man" is a song by English singer, songwriter and musician Lloyd Cole, released on 19 August 1991 as the lead single from his second studio album, Don't Get Weird on Me Babe.

"[2] When Cole presented Don't Get Weird on Me Babe to Polydor, the head of the label, David Munns, was enthusiastic about "She's a Girl and I'm a Man" and felt it would be a hit.

[2] The original version of the song did not finish with the chorus, so Polydor encouraged Cole to return to the studio in attempt to improve its commercial potential.

[5] The Kilmarnock Standard praised the song as "a slice of pure, laconic pop" and added that Quine's "indomitable guitar playing could drive the new single to a lofty chart placing".

"[7] Adam Porter of the Evening Standard was critical, describing it as "a rather silly and weak song" with a title that "British people will be very embarrassed by and rightly so".

He noted the song's "strong hook", "ringing guitar", "catchy chorus" and "wild production", and felt it could achieve interest from both "modern rockers and pop programmers".
