Billie Holiday

Can`t Help Lovin` Dat Man

Oh, listen, sister, I love my Mister man;

I can't tell yo' why

Dere ain't no reason why I should love dat man

It must be sumpin' dat de angels done plan

De chimhley's smokin', de roof is leakin' in,

DM7 D7

But he don't seem to care;

He can be happy with jes' a sip of gin.

I even loves him when his kisses got gin.

Fish got to swim and 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, dat's a rainy day,

And when he comes back, dat day is fine, the sun will shine.

He can come home as late as can be;

Home without him ain't no home to me

Can't help lovin' dat man of mine.
