He's Sure The Boy I Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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 dreamin' of,
But he's sure the boy I love.
Let me tell ya now,
He'll never be a big business man
He always buys on the installment plan
He sure ain't the boy I've 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 that...
He doesn't hang diamonds round my neck,
And all he's got's an unemployment check
He sure ain't the boy I've been dreamin' of,
But he's sure the boy I love.
