Oh listensister
I love my mister man
And I can t tell yo why
Dere ain t no reason
Why I should love dat man.
It must be sumpin dat de angels done plan.

Refrain:

Fish got to swimbirds got to fly
I got to love one man till I die.
Can t help lovin dat man of mine.
Tell me he s lazytell me he s slow
Tell me I m crazy (maybe I know).
Can t help lovin dat man of mine.
When he goes away
Dat s a rainy day
But when he comes back dat day is fine
De sun will shine!
He kin come home as late as kin be
Home widout him ain t no home to me.
Can t help lovin dat man of mine.
~~~
My man is shif less
An good for nuthin too
(He s mah man jes de same)

He s never round here
When dere is work to do.
He s never round here when dere s workin to do.
De chimbley s smokin
De roof is leakin in
But he don t seem to care.
He kin be happy
Wid jes a sip of gin.
Ah even love him when his kisses got gin!
