Lyrics

0:08It cost me a lot
0:11But there's one thing that I've got
0:18It's my man it's my man
0:28Cold or wet tired you bet
0:33All of this I'll soon forget
0:40With my man
0:45He's not much on looks
0:49He's no hero out of books
0:55But I love him yes I love him
1:06Two or three girls has he
1:13That he likes as well as me
1:18But I love him
1:23I don't know why I should
1:29He isn't true he beats me too
1:36What can I do
1:42Oh my man I love him so he'll never know
1:50All my life is just a spare but I don't care
1:57When he takes me in his arms
2:02The world is bright all right
2:11What's the difference if I say I'll go away
2:19When I know I'll come back
2:21On my knees someday
2:28For whatever my man is
2:34I'm his for evermore
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
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 for evermore
