My Better Half(Brings Out My Good Side)

My Better Half(Brings Out My Good Side)We walked through the dance hall doors that nightthe bouncer’s gold tooth shone in the neon lightHe looked nervous when I first walked inCos I’m the guy who put the glitter in his grinBut when he saw the sweet gal on my armMy happy smile said I meant him no harmMy better half brings out my good sideCos I useta finish lotsa fightsA guy on my shoulder with horns and a tailUseta talk me into raising holy hellBut since I met her I fight to do what’s rightMy better half brings out my good sideAfter we danced slow to some George Strait tunesMy lady slipped off to the powder roomSome girl who’d been waltzing’ with wine aloneAsked if I’d like the next dance at her homeI just tapped my wedding band with my thumbSaid “I’m a one woman man and you’re not the oneCos My better half brings out my good sideI useta chase girls ev’ry nightSome guy on my shoulder with a red pitchforkUseta say that women are just there for sportSince I met her yeah, I’ve been lovin’ rightMy better half brings out my better sideThen some drunk touched my wife and I saw redCos long as I’m alive chivalry’s not deadHe spent months sippin’ oatmeal through a strawCos my last right hook busted up his jawWith right n wrong the hardest part of allIs when to walk away and when to walk tallMy better half brings out my good sideCos I useta finish lotsa fightsA guy on my shoulder with horns and a tailUseta talk me into raising holy hellBut since I met her I fight to do what’s rightMy better half brings out my good side©2007 Robert George
