[Intro]
I always dreamed the man I loved would come along
And he'd be tall and handsome, big and strong
Now that man I love has come to me
But sure ain't the way I thought he'd be

[Verse 1]
He doesn't look like a movie star
He doesn't drive a Cadillac car
He sure ain't the man I've been dreamin' of, but
He's sure the man I love

[Verse 2]
He'll never be a big businessman
He buys on the installment plan
He sure ain't the man I've been dreamin' of, but
He's sure the man I love

[Chorus]
When he holds me tight
Everything's right, crazy as it seems
I'm his, whatever he is
And I forget all of my dreams

[Verse 3]
Everybody knows
He'll never hang diamonds around my neck
'Cause all he's got is unemployment checks
He sure ain't the man I've been dreamin' of, but
He's sure the man I love
Oh yeah
[Chorus]
When he holds me tight
Everything's right, crazy as it seems
I'm his, whatever he is
And I forget all of my dreams

[Verse 4]
Everybody knows
He'll never hang diamonds around my neck
He buys with unemployment checks
He sure ain't the man I've been dreamin' of, but
He's sure the man I love

[Outro]
Whoa-oh-oh, yeah
He's sure the man I love
Whoa-oh-oh
He's sure the man I

(Sha-la La-la-la, Yeah yeah)
He's sure the man I love
(Sha-la La-la-la, Yeah yeah)
He's sure the man I love
(Sha-la La-la-la, Yeah yeah)
Every day of my life
(Sha-la La-la-la, Yeah yeah)
He's the man, he's the man, yeah, yeah
(Sha-la La-la-la, Yeah yeah)
He's sure the man I love
(Sha-la La-la-la, Yeah yeah)
Yeah, the man I love
(Sha-la La-la-la, Yeah yeah)
He's my man, my man, yeah yeah, the man I love
(Sha-la La-la-la, Yeah yeah)
He's the man I love
(Sha-la La-la-la, Yeah yeah)
(Sha-la La-la-la, Yeah yeah)
He's my man, my man
