It cost me a lot but there's one thing that I've got
It's my man, it's my man
Cold or wet, tired you bet
All of this I'll soon forget with my man [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/billie_holiday/my_man_mon_homme.html ]
He's not much on looks, he's no hero out of books
But I love him, yes, I love him
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 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 forevermore
