Lyrics
Yes, you are my girlfriend ? you?re no beauty it?s true
But I can?t do no better so I?ll put up with you
Now that?s true love honey, plain and clear
My lover, baby, sweetheart, my dear
You can?t always get what you want and I didn?t want you
But now you?re here so I?ll have to make do
First thing in the morning and the last thing at night
I aint lying, you?re no pretty sight
But I love you so don?t get the blues
It?s true what they say, beggars can?t chose
You act a little funny and don?t look quite right
You say weird things ?cause you?re not very bright
They say what?s important is on the inside
But your head?s a little empty so I guess they lied
