No, he ain't perfect, this man of mine. He wrote me a love song, but the words don't rhyme. He drives me crazy, how he's late all the time. But I love my baby just the same.
Sittin' by the roadside on a summer's day. Talkin' with my comrades to pass the time away. Lying in the shade underneath the trees. Goodness how delicious, eating goober peas.
