It's cost me a lot

But there's one thing that I've got

It's my man

Cold and 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

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 good

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 despair

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 be back

On my knees someday

For whatever my man is

I am his forevermore
