Lyrics

I'm not much to look at, nothing to see
Just glad I'm living and lucky to be
I've got a man crazy for me
He's funny that way
I can't save a dollar, ain't worth a cent
He doesn't holler, he's living in a tent
I've got that man crazy for me
He's funny that way
Though, he loves to work and slave for me everyday
He'd be so much better off if I went away
But, why should I leave him?
Why should I go?
He'd be unhappy without me, I know
I've got that man mad about me
He's funny that way
Never had nothing, no one to care
That's why I seem to have more than my share
I've got a man crazy for me
He's funny that way
When I hurt his feelings once in a while
His only answer is one little smile
I've got that man crazy for me
He's funny that way
I can see no other way and no better plan
End it all and let him go to some better girl
But, I'm only human, a coward at best
I'm more than certain, he'd follow me West
I've got a man crazy for me
He's funny that way
