Songtexte He's Funny That Way - Billie Holiday

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 hollar, he'd live 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, mo 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 a 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 gal

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
