[Verse 1]

They say I'm afflicted

For lovin' you

They say I'm afflicted

For caring for you

When they say "Afflicted"

They mean I'm messed up in the head

But, oh, it's not really that, baby

It's not really that, baby

I'm crazy about you

That's all it is, baby

[Verse 2]

You see, I work seven days a week

I work seven days a week for you

Every pay day, baby

I bring all my money to you

But, oh, oh when I get home

You won't believe this

But I have to eat from the can

Oh, everybody say I'm crazy, baby

But I won't only do that for you, baby

I'll die for you

[Verse 3]

And another thing

Do you remember Old Joe?

I know you do, baby

He was once my best friend

You ran away with Joe

And, oh, the money got thin

But, oh, when you and Joe came back home

I opened the door and took you in

Oh, yes, I did

[Verse 4]

Oh, everybody's been talkin' 'bout me, baby

But, oh, I'm crazy 'bout you

Oh, they say I'm afflicted, baby

But that's alright, baby

It's not really afflicted

But I love you from the bottom of my heart

[Outro]

Oh, they say I'm afflicted

Oh, they say I'm messed up all in my head

Oh, it's not that, baby

It's not that, baby

I'm just crazy about you

La la la la la la la la

Talkin' sweet, la la la la
