[JULIE]
Fish got to swim, birds got to fly
I got to love one man till I die-
Can't help lovin' dat man of mine

Oh, listen, sister
I love my mister man
And I can't tell you why
Dere ain't no reason
Why I should love dat man-
It must be something dat de angels done plan

(Refrain)
Fish got to swim, 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

When he goes away
That's a rainy day
And when he comes back that day is fine
De sun will shine!
He can come home late as can be
Home without him ain't no home to me-
Can't help lovin' dat man of mine

[QUEENIE]
My man's a dreamer, he don't have much to say
He's my man just the same
Instead of workin', he sits and dreams all day

[JOE]
Instead of workin', he'll be dreamin' all day

[QUEENIE]
The chimney's smokin'
The roof is leakin' in
But he don't seem to care
He only looks at the things he wants to see

[JOE]
What you want me to see

[QUEENIE]
Oh, how I love him when he's lookin' at me

[ENSEMBLE]
(Refrain)
Fish got to swim, 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
(He's just as crazy 'bout me)

When he goes away
That's a rainy day
And when he comes back that day is fine
De sun will shine!

He can come home late as can be
Home without him ain't no home to me-
Can't help lovin' dat man of mine

(Refrain)
Fish got to swim, 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
(He's just as crazy 'bout me)

When he goes away
That's a rainy day
And when he comes back that day is fine
De sun will shine!
He can come home late as can be
Home without him ain't no home to me-
Can't help lovin' dat man of mine
