It's Only a Man Songtext
von Ella Fitzgerald

Why am I crying my eyes out
Waiting in vain for his call?
Supposin′ he roams nights
And never come home nights at all
It's only a man!

Love is a candle that dies out
Just when you think it′s aflame
So keep on saying
"You fool, why keep on playing the game?
It's only a man!"


I could try
Forgetting my chances are slim!
But here am I
Regretting the flame growing dim
Torching for him!

Each day I say that I'll leave him
Pack up my heartache and go
But trust him or doubt him
I can′t live without him
Although it′s only a man!

Each day I say that I'll leave him
Pack up my heartache and go
But trust him or doubt him
I can′t live without him
Although it's only a man
It′s only a man!
