Oh, listen, sister, I love my Mister man I can't tell yo' why Dere ain't no reason why I should love dat man It must be sumpin' dat de angels done plan De chimhley's smokin', de roof is leakin' in But he don't seem to care He can be happy with jes' a sip of gin I even loves him when his kisses got gin Melody Fish got to swim and birds got to fly I got to love one man till I die Can't help lovin' dat man of mine Tell me he's lazy, tell me he's slow Tell me I'm crazy maybe, I know Can't help lovin' dat man of mine Bridge When he goes away, dat's a rainy day And when he comes back, dat day is fine, the sun will shine He can come home as late as can be Home without him ain't no home to me Can't help lovin' dat man of mine
