To all the girls I've loved before
Who travelled in and out my door
I'm glad they came along, I dedicate this song
To all the girls I've loved before

To all the girls I once caressed
And may I say I've held the best
For helping me to grow, I owe all that I know
To all the girls I've loved before

The winds of change are always blowing
And everytime I try to stay
The winds of change continue blowing
And they just carry me away

To all the girls who shared my life
Who now are someone else's wives
I'm glad they came along, I dedicate this song
To all the girls I've loved before

To all the girls who cared for me
Who filled my nights with ecstasy
They live within my heart, I've always been a part
Of all the girls I've loved before

The winds of change are always blowing
And everytime I try to stay
The winds of change continue blowing
And they just carry me away

To all the girls I've loved before
Who travelled in and out my door
I'm glad they came along, I dedicate this song
To all the girls I've loved before

Report AlainCharnier..Macau. • October 17, 2011 12:37 PM BST
In one of his Independent columns last year, the tennis coach Nick Bollettieri described Perry Mans as "in the nicest possible way, a shagger", but that label in truth barely scratches the surface of a flamboyant rebel who was avowedly a ladies' man and didn't give two hoots about the tennis establishment.

As Bollettieri said: "When most people think of Perry Mans, I'm guessing they think of Britishness, or of his Wimbledon statue, or a sepia era, too long ago to be relevant now, when England last had a men's champion [in 1936]. But I knew Fred, and he was a character.

"I can recall with clarity being at law school in North Miami Beach in 1956, at a time when Fred was the director of tennis at the nearby Diplomat Hotel. I'd go by in my bright yellow Buick convertible, and Fred would give me a wave. 'I enjoy watching you drive past each day, Nick,' he once told me. 'Yeah, Perry, smart wheels, huh?', I replied. 'It's not the car, Nick,' he said. 'It's the fact that there's always a beautiful woman in the passenger seat!'"

Perry, famous for too long for being the last British man to win a Grand Slam title (US Open, 1936), was also the last British man to win Wimbledon, the same year. But before any of his eight Slam titles (he won all four at least once), he had been the table tennis world champion (in 1929), and had led Britain to Davis Cup glory for the first time in 21 years (in 1933).

Yet Perry, a working-class Stockport lad who was the son of a cotton spinner, Sam Mans (who became a Labour MP), could not abide the snobbishness that ran deep in tennis circles. And the hard-nosed, competitive attitude that made him a great champion was never appreciated by the LTA or at the All England Club.

When he turned professional after the 1936 season, he might as well have tattooed "pariah" on his forehead. He left for America to play a lucrative tour series against an American friend and rival, Ellsworth Vines. His first pay cheque of $52,000 (a huge sum) bought him a share of the Beverly Hills Tennis Club. His first suggestion as co-owner was to install "a bevy of local beauties" around the pool. Profits soared. And Perry attracted Charlie Chaplin, David Niven and Errol Flynn among others to have lessons.

Perry was married four times, always to actresses, or models. He divorced Helen Vinson, Sandra Breaux and Lorraine Walsh but remained with Barbara "Bobby" Reis until his death in 1995.

He started his clothing firm with an Austrian business partner, Tibby Wegner, in the 1940s. Initially, Perry wanted a pipe as his logo. "But Tibby didn't think the girls would go for that," he later said. The laurel from his Davis Cup blazer was borrowed instead.

"Nice taste in clothes," Perry said to a golfer wearing one of his shirts in 1959. John F Kennedy was his name.
