It's cost me a lot But, there's one thing that I've got It's my man Cold and wet, tired you bet But, all that, I soon forget With my man He's not much for looks And no hero out of books Is my man Two or three girls has he That he likes as well as me But I love him I don't know why I should He isn't good, he isn't true He beats me too What can I do? Oh, my man, I love him so He'll never know All my life is just despair But, I don't care When he takes me in his arms The world is bright, all right What's the difference If I say, "I'll go away" When I know I'll come back on my knees, someday For whatever my man is I am his forevermore
