I Must Have That Man Lillie Delk Christian (Ft. Louis Armstrong & His Hot Four)

[Trumpet solo: Louis Armstrong]

[Verse]
I’m so unhappy, left all alone
Ain’t got nobody to love now
The man I long for is not so strong for me
He's not an angel but I don't care
Perhaps a change'll come some day
Whatever he is, I want to be his way

[Chorus 1 with trumpet: Louis Armstrong]
Don't want my mammy, I don't need a friend
My heart is broken, it won't ever mend
I ain't much carin' just where I will end
I must have that man

[Chorus 2 with trumpet: Louis Armstrong]
I'm like an oven that's crying for heat
He treats me awful each time that we meet
It's just unlawful how that boy can cheat
But I must have that man

[Bridge with clarinet: Jimmy Noone]
He's hot as Hades, a lady's
Not safe in his arms when she's kissed
But I'm afraid that he's cooled off
And maybe I'm ruled off his list
I'll never be missed
