She's Funny That Way - Original - Stan Kenton and His Orchestra

Once she dressed in silks and lace, Owned a Rolls Royce car

Now she seems quite out of place, like a fallen star

Draped around my kitchen sink, Happy as can be

I just have to stop and think, Why she fell for me

I’m not much to look at, nothing to see

Just glad I’m livin' and lucky to be

I got a woman crazy for me

She’s funny that way

I can’t save a dollar, ain’t worth a cent

She doesn’t holler she’d live in a tent

I got a woman crazy for me

She’s funny that way

Tho' she loves to work and slave for me ev’ry day

She’d be so much better off if I went away

But why should I leave her, why should I go

She’d be unhappy without me I know

I got a woman crazy for me

She’s funny that way

She should have the very best, Anyone can see

Still she’s diff’rent from the rest, satisfied with me

While I worry plan and scheme, Over what to do

Can’t help feeling it’s a dream, Too good to be true

Never had nothin';

no one to care

That’s why I seem to have more than my share

I got a woman, crazy for me

She’s funny that way

When I hurt her feelings, once in a while

Her only answer is one little smile

I got a woman crazy for me

She’s funny that way

I can see no other way and no better plan

End it all and let her go to some better man;

But I’m only human, coward at best

I’m more than certain she’d follow me west

I got a woman crazy for me

She’s funny that way
