He’s My Man lyrics

[Verse 1]
Late September in the city
The sky is gray, the air is sticky
I keep falling in and out of sleep
Lettin' the sun scorch the grass
The flies are knockin' on the glass
But they're the only other friends I have, you see

[Pre-Chorus]
I need him so much that it hurts
I wish he didn't have to go to work
And I just lie and watch the ceiling fan turn

[Chorus]
He's my man, we're hand in hand
To hell and back
And I'll love him like nobody else can
He's my man, I've been damned
No, nobody has to understand
Me and my man

[Verse 2]
I stay home and make his dinner
Even though somehow he keeps gettin' thinner
I wait, watchin' the washing machine spin 'round and 'round again
[Pre-Chorus]
I need him so much that it hurts
I wish he didn't have to go to work
He keeps complainin' that his vision's blurred

[Chorus]
He's my man, we're hand in hand
To hell and back
And I'll love him like nobody else can
He's my man, I've been damned
No, nobody has to understand
Me and my man

[Bridge]
He keeps havin' feverish dreams
That he can never, ever leave
He wakes, head aches, funny taste to his tea
I want him to stay here forever
He's happiest with me
'Cause he

[Chorus]
He's my man
And I'll love him like nobody else can
He's my man, he's gone quite mad
No, nobody has to understand
Me and my man
