I HAD A MAN.
HE WAS A GOOD MAN.
THAT IS, YOU SEE, WHAT I MEAN IS
I THOUGHT HE WAS A GOOD MAN.
I HAD A FRIEND.
SHE WAS A GOOD FRIEND.
I TOLD MY FRIEND 멊OUT MY MAN 멌AUSE
I THOUGHT SHE WAS A GOOD FRIEND.
LIFE WAS SWEET.
DIDN뭈 I HAVE MY MAN?
WORLD COMPLETE...
THEN THE FIREWORKS BEGAN.
AIN뭈 GOT NO MAN.
AIN뭈 GOT NO FRIEND.
I BET YOU CAN GUESS
JUST EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED.
THAT WAS THE END,
THE END OF MY FRIEND,
THE END OF MY MAN,
AND ALMOST THE END OF ME.
OH YES, OH YES, I HAD A MAN.
OOO-DOO-DOO-DOO-DOO,
THAT IS, YOU SEE, WHAT I MEAN IS
I THOUGHT HE WAS A GOOD MAN.
I HAD A FRIEND
I SAID, I HAD A FRIEND
UMM-MMM-MMM-MMM-MMM
I TOLD MY FRIEND 멊OUT MY MAN
멌AUSE I THOUGHT SHE WAS A GOOD FRIEND.
LIFE WAS SWEET.
DIDN뭈 I HAVE MY MAN, MY MAN
WORLD COMPLETE...
THEN THE FIREWORKS BEGAN.
AIN뭈 GOT NO MAN.
AIN뭈 GOT NO FRIEND.
I BET YOU CAN GUESS
JUST EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED.
THAT WAS THE END,
THE END OF MY FRIEND,
THE END OF MY MAN,
AND DARNED NEAR THE END OF ME.

Danny Kaye's wife, Sylvia Fine, adapted it to a jive version that was done
in a "Mail Call" program in 1944 by Danny and Dinah:
