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 soon forget
With my man

He's not much for looks
And no hero out of books
But I love him
Yes, 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
You'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’ll say
I’ll go away
When I know I'll come back
On my knees someday
For whatever my man is
I am his forevermore

Yes, whatever my man is
I am his forevermore...
