The Crystals - He's Sure The Boy I Love lyrics

(Barry Mann/Cynthia Weil) SPOKEN: Always dreamed the boy I love would come along And he'd be tall and handsome, rich and strong. Now, that boy I love has come to me But he sure ain't the way I thought he'd be. (Sha-la-la-la-la, hey hey hey Sha-la-la-la-la, hey hey hey Sha-la-la-la-la, hey hey hey He's sure the boy I love) He doesn't look like a movie star He doesn't drive a Cadillac car He sure ain't the boy I've been dreaming of but He's sure the boy I love Let me tell ya now He'd never be a big businessman He always buys on the installment plan He sure ain't the boy I've been dreaming of but He's sure the boy I love When he holds me tight, Everything's right Crazy as it seems I'm his, whatever he is, And I forget all of my dreams And everybody knows He doesn't hang diamonds round my neck, oh-oh And all he's got's an unemployment check He sure ain't the boy I've been dreaming of but He's sure the boy I love INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE When he holds me tight, Everything's right Crazy as it seems I'm his, whatever he is, And I forget all of my dreams Oh-oh-oh-oh He doesn't hang diamonds round my neck And all he's got's an unemployment check He sure ain't the boy I've been dreaming of but He's sure the boy I love He's sure the boy I love He's sure the boy I love (repeat and fade out)
