Funny That Way

Once I dressed in silks and lace, owned a Rolls Royce too
Had a gorgeous country place and diamonds quite a few
Now around the kitchen sink, happy as can be
I'm in love and love to think that he's in love with me

He's not much to look at and nothing to see
Why, he's just as plain and poor as can be
Why do I love him? Hmm, I don't know
I'm funny that way

Had chances of being some rich man's wife
Live in a mansion the rest of my life
Why do I go through hardship and strife?
Why, I'm funny that way

When he sees me slaving just to keep up our home
He says I'd be better off to leave him alone
But why should I leave him? Why should I go?
He'd be unhappy without me, I know
'Cause he's just my man and I love him so
I'm funny that way
