The Girl You Get

Should I give you the girl that you want to see The one that you want me to be In the kitchen barefoot like you said Makin’ you feel like a man in bed You like my jeans and my messy hair I have you tell you I don’t care There’s some sides to me I don’t much show But maybe that’s the girl you should know She ain’t worried about style or look She’s got more to do than clean or cook She works for justice and for peace She’s got two advanced degrees She loves to travel and to roam She volunteers at the senior home She is fierce and she can fight She will always do what’s right She is human and she needs love too So I guess for now you’ll do Just remember one thing honey Which girl you get’s up to me Now baby don’t you look so hurt How ‘bout you take off that shirt ‘Cause I’m going to keep you around I think Now whyn’t you go fix me a drink June 28, 2020
