He’s Funny That Way Songtext
von Billie Holiday & Her Lads of Joy

I′m not much to look at
Nothing to see
Just glad I'm living
And lucky to be
I′ve got a man crazy for me
He's funny that way

I can't save a dollar
Ain′t worth a cent
He doesn′t holler
He'd live in a tent
I′ve got that man crazy for me
He's funny that way


Though he loves to work
And slave for me everyday
He′d be so much better off
If I went away
But why should I leave him
Why should I go
He'd be unhappy without me, I know
I′ve got that man mad about me
He's funny that way

I can see no other way
And no better plan
End it all and let him go
To some other girl
But I'm only human

A coward at best
I′m more than certain
He′d follow me West
I've got a man crazy for me
He′s funny that way
