Lyrics I Love the Guy - Jo Stafford

Cupid shot his arrow and he had perfect aim
It landed in the heart of an innocent dame
And ever since that day I find
I'm slowly goin' out of my mind

I love the guy
Though he grieves me and he leaves me high and dry
He breaks dates and I'm left alone
Then I say that he's on his own
But when he calls I break my neck to get the phone
'Cause I love the guy

I like the lad
Though his lies and alibis just drive me mad
We go out and he doesn't dress
I get angry but I'll confess
He's mine and I don't really care if he's a mess
'Cause I love the guy

I want the dope
I adore him, although for him there's no hope
He's not true when he's at his best
Oh, what escapades he's confessed
But mine's the only name that's tattooed on his chest
Yes, I love the guy

I love the chap
You can see that he's the tree and I'm the sap
Other men may have better looks
Make more money and read more books
But only he could eat the things that this girl cooks
So I love the guy
