He’s A Good Man to Have Around Lyrics by Kay Starr

Kay Starr: the Best of The Standard Transcriptions

0

There's one thing that a woman can't live without
And that's a man!
There's one thing that keeps a woman always in doubt
And that's a man!
Now I'm no exception to this rule
I know thay say that I'm a fool
But there's one thing that I'm simply crazy about
And that's my man!
He's not good looking, not handsome or tall
I couldn't tell you how he made me fall;
There's nothin' to him, but still and all
He's a good man to have around!
Ge's not a stepper, can't even waltz
In conversation he stammers and halts;
Poor little sweet man, with all his faults
He's a good man to have around!
And at times when I fly off my lid
"Go this minute!", I shout
But if he did
I would die without him!
He's not exactly my ides of
The perfect lover from heaven above!
But what's the difference, the man you love
Is a good man to have around!
You wouldn't like him, he's not on the show;
Not to be trusted, I learned long ago!
Just good for nothin', But I don'y know
He's a good man to have around!
When dinner's over, I turn and he's gone
I hear him sneakin' along about dawn!
I don't say nothin', 'cause from then on
He's a good man to have around!
And at times, when he starts to row
I don't care if I live!
But he knows how to make me forgive him!
Bought a revolver, I don't mean for fun!
I oughta shoot him for things that he's done!
But I can't pull the trigger, son of a gun!
He's a good man to have around!
