Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:


Lyrics

He’s not affectionate, the way I wish he’d be
He’s thoughtless and at times he’s even mean to me
Tell me I’m crazy to be so mad about him
Oh maybe so, I only know there’s nothing for me without him

Chorus
He’s my guy, I don’t care what he does
‘Cause he’s my guy I guess he always was
He’s careless about me, I don’t think he tries
But once in a while, he’ll hug me and smile
Then I can see me in his eyes
Oh, he’s my guy, I know he’ll always be
And I will try to keep him loving me
However he wants me, I’m his until I die
For nobody knows, better than I
That he’s my guy
