Lyrics
It cost me a lot but there's one thing that I've got it's my man
Cold and wet, tired, you bet but all that I'll soon forget with my man
He's not much on looks and no hero out of books it's my man
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 come back on my knees someday
For whatever my man is, I'm his forever more
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 forever more
