I Must Have That Man Songtext
von Teddy Wilson and His Orchestra

Don′t want my mammy
I don't need a friend
My heart is broken
It won′t ever mend
I ain't much carin'
Just where I will end
I must have that man

I′m like an oven
That′s cryin' for heat
He treats me awful
Each time that we meet
It′s just unlawful
How that boy can cheat
But I must have that man


He's hot as Hades
A lady′s not safe in his arms
When she's kissed
But I′m afraid that he's cooled off
And maybe I'm ruled off his list
I′ll never be missed

I need that person much worse′n just bad
I'm falf alive and it′s drivin' me mad
He′s only human if he's to be had
I must have that man
Don′t want my mammy
I don't need a friend
My heart is broken
It won't ever mend
I ain′t much carin′
Just where I will end
I must have that man

I'm like an oven
That′s cryin' for heat
He treats me awful
Each time that we meet
It′s just unlawful
How that boy can cheat
But I must have that man


He's hot as Hades
A lady′s not safe in his arms
When she's kissed
But I'm afraid that he′s cooled off
And maybe I′m ruled off his list
I'll never be missed

I need that person much worse′n just bad
I'm half alive and it′s drivin' me mad
He′s only human if he's to be had
I must have that man
