Mon homme

Lyrics

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
 But all that I soon forget
 With my man
 He's not much for looks
 And no hero out of books
 Is 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 some day?
 For whatever my man is
 I am his forever more
 Oh, my man I love him
 Sometimes I say
 If I could just get away
 With my man
 He'd go straight sure as fate
 For it never is too late
 For a man
 I just like to dream
 Of a cottage by a stream
 With my man
 Where a few flowers grew
 And perhaps a kid or two
 Like my man
 And then my eyes get wet
 I most forget till he gets hot
 And tells me not to talk such rot
 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 some day?
 For what ever my man is
 I am his forever more
