Billie Holiday
He’s Funny That Way [09-13-1937]
[Verse 1]
Never had nothin', no one to care
That's why I seem to have more than my share
I've got a man crazy for me
He's funny that way
[Verse 2]
When I hurt his feelings, once in a while
HIs only answer is one little smile
I've got that man crazy for me
He's funny that way
[Chorus]
I can't see no other way
And no better plan
End it all and let him go
To some better gal
[Verse 3]
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
[Chorus]
Though he loves to work and slave
For me everyday
He'd be so much better off
If I went away
[Verse 4]
But why should I leave him, why should I go?
He'd be unhappy without me, I know
I've got that man crazy about me
He's funny that way
