He's Sure the Boy I Love

I always dreamed the boy I loved would come along

and he'd be tall and handsome, rich and strong.

now that boy I love has come to me,

but he sure ain't the way I thought he'd be.

he doesn't look like a movie star,

he doesn't drive a cadillac car,

he sure ain't yhe boy I've been dreamin' of,

but he's sure the boy I love.

let me tell ya now,

he' never be a big business man

he always buys on the installment plan

he sure ain't the boy I been dreamin' of,

but he's sure the boy I love.

when he holds me tight,

everythings right,

crazy as it seems,

I'm his, whatever he is,

and I forget all of my dreams,

and everybody knows...

he doesn't hang diamonds round my neck,

and all he's got's an unemployment check

he sure ain't the boy I been dreamin' of,

but he's sure the boy I love.
