Crystals - He's Sure The Boy I Love lyrics

rate me

(Barry Mann/Cynthia Weil)<br />

<br />

SPOKEN:<br />

Always dreamed the boy I love would come along<br />

And he'd be tall and handsome, rich and strong.<br />

Now, that boy I love has come to me<br />

But he sure ain't the way I thought he'd be.<br />

<br />

(Sha-la-la-la-la, hey hey hey<br />

Sha-la-la-la-la, hey hey hey<br />

Sha-la-la-la-la, hey hey hey<br />

He's sure the boy I love)<br />

<br />

He doesn't look like a movie star<br />

He doesn't drive a Cadillac car<br />

He sure ain't the boy I've been dreaming of but<br />

He's sure the boy I love<br />

<br />

Let me tell ya now<br />

He'd never be a big businessman<br />

He always buys on the installment plan<br />

He sure ain't the boy I've been dreaming of but<br />

He's sure the boy I love<br />

<br />

When he holds me tight,<br />

Everything's right<br />

Crazy as it seems<br />

I'm his, whatever he is,<br />

And I forget all of my dreams<br />

And everybody knows<br />

<br />

He doesn't hang diamonds round my neck, oh-oh<br />

And all he's got's an unemployment check<br />

He sure ain't the boy I've been dreaming of but<br />

He's sure the boy I love<br />

<br />

INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE<br />

<br />

When he holds me tight,<br />

Everything's right<br />

Crazy as it seems<br />

I'm his, whatever he is,<br />

And I forget all of my dreams<br />

Oh-oh-oh-oh<br />

<br />

He doesn't hang diamonds round my neck<br />

And all he's got's an unemployment check<br />

He sure ain't the boy I've been dreaming of but<br />

He's sure the boy I love<br />

<br />

He's sure the boy I love<br />

He's sure the boy I love<br />

(repeat and fade out)
