The song is " Can't Help Lovin' That Man", sung by Barbra Steisand. Lyrics:

Oh listen sister,

I love my mister man,

And I can't tell you why

There is no reason why I should love that man,

It must be somethin' that the angels have planned.

Fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly,

I gotta love one man till I die.

Can't help lovin' that man of mine.

Tell me he's lazy, tell me he's slow,

Tell me I'm crazy, maybe I know.

Can't help lovin' that man of mine

When he goes away, that's a rainy day,

And when he comes back that day is fine,

The sun will shine!

He can come home as late as can be,

Home without him ain't no home to me,

Can't help lovin' that man of mine.

Can't help lovin' that man of mine.

Note that it was first sung by Ella Fitzgerald under the title: "Can't Help Lovin' Dat Man". It was first heard in classic 1927 musical play Show Boat. Show boat contained many of the best African American singers of the day and the play depicted African slavery. Compare the Show Boat lyrics to today's version:

Oh listen sister, I love my mister man

And I can't tell you why, there ain't no reason

Why I should love dat man

It must be somethin' that the Angels did plan The chimney's smokin', the roof is leakin' in

But he don't seem to care

He can be happy with just a sip of gin

I even love him when his kisses got gin Fish got to swim and birds got to fly

I got to love one man 'til I die

Can't help lovin' dat man of mine Tell me he's lazy, tell me he's slow

Tell me I'm crazy, maybe I know

Can't help lovin' dat man of mine When he goes away, that's a rainy day

And when he comes back that day is fine

The sun will shine He can come home as late as can be

Home without him ain't no home to me

Can't help lovin' dat man of mine
