ELLA FITZGERALD

The Man I Love

Someday he'll come along, the man I love
And he'll be big and strong, the man I love
And when he comes my way
I'll do my best to make him stay

He'll look at me and smile,
I'll understand
And in a little while he'll take my hand
And though it seems absurd
I know we both won't say a word

Maybe I shall meet him sunday
Maybe monday, maybe not
Still I'm sure to meet him one day
Maybe tuesday will be my good news day

He'll build a little home, just meant for two
From which we'll never roam; who would, would you?
And so all else above I'm waiting for the man I love

The man I love had the odd distinction of becoming a recognized standard despite it's having been (1)
Thrown out of the musical for which it had been written
(lady, be good! in 1924); (2) sung in a show that flopped on the road (the 1927 strike up the
Band); (3) added to and then cut from a third musical
(rosalie); (4) rejected when strike up the band was successfully revised in 1929. the reason for
The last situation was ironic: the song had become too well
Known!
