Never had nothing
No one to care
That's why I seem to have
More than my share
I've got a man crazy for me
He's funny that way
When I hurt his feelings
Once in a while
His only answer is one little smile
I've got that man crazy for me
He's funny that way
I can see no other way
And no better plan
End it all and let him go
To some better gal
But I'm only human
A coward at best
I'm more than certain
He'd follow me West
I've got that man crazy for me
He's funny that way
Though he loves to work
And slave for me everyday
He'd be so much better off
If I went away
But why should I leave him
Why should I go
He'd be unhappy without me I know
I've got that man crazy for me
He's funny that way
Eleanora Fagan, nota come Billie Holiday (1915-1959), è stata una cantante statunitense considerata una delle più grandi interpreti di jazz e blues di tutti i tempi. Cresciuta a Filadelfia in un ambiente difficile, iniziò la sua carriera musicale nei locali notturni di Harlem. Il suo stile vocale unico, caratterizzato da una voce profonda e sensuale con un'ampia gamma espressiva, le valse il soprannome di "Lady Day". Holiday era nota per le sue interpretazioni emozionanti e malinconiche, spesso accompagnate da arrangiamenti jazz raffinati. Tra i suoi brani più famosi figurano "Strange Fruit", una canzone contro la violenza razziale che divenne un inno contro il linciaggio negli Stati Uniti, e "God Bless the Child". Holiday ha collaborato con alcuni dei musicisti più importanti del suo tempo, tra cui Lester Young, Teddy Wilson e Count Basie. La sua carriera fu segnata da problemi personali e di dipendenza, ma la sua influenza sulla musica jazz rimane immensa.
