You hold on to love that's gone Run a mile to see him smile But you don't know he's door to door playin' you for the fool Let him go, walk out your door And come to me I'm gonna set you free Now you look and there you go back to him, he's gonna do you in

It cost me a lot But there's one thing that I've got It's my man, it's my man Cold and wet, tired, you bet All of this I'll soon forget with my man He's not much for looks He's no hero out of books But I love him, yes I love him Two or three girls has he
