I'm not much to look at, nothin' to see

Just glad I'm livin' and happy to be

I got a woman, crazy for me

She's funny that way

 

I can't save a dollar, ain't worth a cent

She'd never holler, she'd live in a tent

I got a woman, crazy for me

She's funny that way

 

Though she'd love to work and slave for me every day

She'd be so much better off if I went away

 

But why should I leave her, why should I go?

She'd be unhappy without me, I know

I got a woman, crazy for me

She's funny that way

 

<very brief instrumental>

 

When I hurt her feelin's once in a while

Her only answer is one little smile

I got a woman, crazy for me

She's funny that way
