(Chapin Hartford)      Let me tell you a little somethin' 'bout this heart of mine   I ain't gonna try to make it smile when it's really cryin'   And I won't tell you that I love you when I'm mad   But I won't tell you that I hate you, you can't get that bad      I'll give you my love   Well most of the time   All my affection   And a little piece of my mind   Some of my money   And a key to my car   But I'm gonna be the bossa' my heart, bossa' my heart   I'm gonna be the bossa' my heart      Now don't get me wrong 'cause baby you're the only one   If I seem a little cold it's from the storm I've come from   I have a history of missing the obvious   I nearly froze in a blinding love, I won't let that happen to us      I'll give you my love   Well most of the time   All my affection   And a little piece of my mind   Some of my money   And a key to my car   But I'm gonna be the bossa' my heart, bossa' my heart   I'm gonna be the bossa' my heart      I'm gonna let you be   The bossa' who   Watches the money, picks out the restaurants   Honey you do what you want   Yes you can   Be the main man   When it comes to the practical things that living can bring   I'm putty in your hands   But let me get one thing straight before we start      I'm gonna be the bossa' my heart, bossa' my heart I'm gonna be the bossa' my heart
