He sure ain't the boy I've been dreamin' of
When he holds me tight everything's right
He always buys all the installment plan
But he's sure the boy I love, oh yeah
He doesn't hang diamonds 'round my neck
Sha la la, la la, yeah, yeah yeah
And everybody knows
And I forget all of my dreams
He's sure the boy I love
But he's sure the boy I love, let me tell you now
He sure ain't the boy I been dreamin' of
He doesn't drive a Cadillac car
And I forget all of my dreams, oh
He's sure the boy I love
When he holds me tight everything's right
He doesn't hang diamonds 'round my neck
He's sure the boy I love
Sha la la, la la, yeah, yeah yeah
And all he's got is unemployment cheque
He doesn't look like a movie star
And all he's got an unemployment cheque
Crazy as it seems I'm his, whatever he is
He's sure the boy I love
But he sure ain't the way I thought he'd be
Sha la la, la la, yeah, yeah yeah
He sure ain't the boy I been dreamin' of
Now that boy I love has come to me
But he's sure the boy I love
He sure ain't the boy I been dreamin' of
He never be a big business man
But he's sure the boy I love
Crazy as it seems I'm his, whatever he is
