Billie Holiday - Don't Explain

He's Funny That Way

I'm not much to look at
I'm nothing to see
I'm glad I'm living, and I'm lucky to be
I've got a man crazy for me
He's funny that way

Ain't got a dollar
Can't save a cent
He doesn't holler
He'd live in a tent
I've got that man mad about 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 crazy for 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 better girl
But I'm only human
A coward at best
I'm more than certain
He'd follow me West
I've got that man crazy for me
He's funny that way

I'm not-, I'm not sure I'm gonna like this
