Lyrics

My man went away, my man went away

I said I'd miss him every night and day

And I began to look around

Wish I could show you what I found

Mark substitute, sweet substitute

He tells me that he's mine, all mine

Ev'ry time I tell him

You know love is blind

He's got such lovin' ways

Got my head in a daze

My new recruit is mighty sweet and cute

I'm crazy 'bout my substitute

He's got such lovin' ways

Got my head in a daze

My new recruit is mighty sweet and cute

I'm crazy 'bout my substitute

Crazy 'bout my substitute
