It costs me a lot but there's one thing that I've got It's my man Cold and wet, tired, you bet All of that I'll soon forget with my man He's not much for looks, ain't no hero out of books He's 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 a spare 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'm his forever, and ever, ever love
