Lyrics for He's Funny That Way

I'm not much to look at Nothing to see Just glad I'm living And lucky to be I've got a man crazy for me He's funny that way I can't save a dollar Ain't worth a cent He doesn't holler He'd live in a tent I've got that man crazy for 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 mad about 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 other girl But I'm only human A coward at best I'm more than certain He'd follow me West I've got a man crazy for me He's funny that way
