It cost me a lot but there's one thing that I've got
It's my man, cold and wet, tired, you bet
But all that I'll soon forget with my man

He's not much on looks and no hero out of books
It's my man, two or three girls has he
That he likes as well as me but I love him

I don't know why I should
He isn't good, he isn't true
He beats me, too, what can I do?

Oh, my man, I love him so
He'll never know, all my life is just despair
But I don't care, when he takes me in his arms
The world is bright, all right

What's the difference if I say I'll go away
When I know I'll come back
On my knees someday
For whatever my man is, I'm his forever more

What's the difference if I say I'll go away
When I know I'll come back
On my knees someday
For whatever my man is, I'm his forever more
