He's Sure The Boy I Love

(álbum: Something To Shout About - 1965)

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 the boy I've been dreaming of
But he's sure the boy I love

Let me tell ya now
He'll never be a big businessman
He always buys on the installment plan
He sure ain't the boy I been dreaming of
But he's sure the boy I love

When he holds me tight
Everything's 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 dreaming of
But he's sure the boy I love
