Lyrics

Good to Me

I wish for simple with all of my heart
God send me somebody but don't make him too smart
Don't need a lawyer, a doctor will do
To mend all my broken bones when I'm feelin' blue
I like conversation when there's something to say
But I'd hate to listen to clever all day

So wire me Western Union (telegraph me home)
God send me my paint by number (no fail guarantee)
If I colour in the lines
Won't you promise to be good to me
Promise to be good

Please let him be thankful hardworking and true
Cause you know and I know there is laundry to do
Slow Sunday mornings to lay down my head
And read me the paper with breakfast in bed
I just need a man who'll be on my side
I just need a man who is satisfied

So wire me Western Union (telegraph me home)
God send me my paint by number (no fail guarantee)
If I colour in the lines
Won't you promise to be good to me
Promise to be good

He'll be willin' and content to be
You know the only girl he'll ever want is me
He'll be willin' just like the good book says
There's truth in the love that doesn't pretend

So give me a holler and tell me his name
I'm ready and willin' believe me I'm game
And just let me add a special thank you or two
I swear that I'll name all my kids after you , so

So wire me Western Union (telegraph me home)
God send me my paint by number (no fail guarantee)
If I colour in the lines
Won't you promise to be

So wire me Western Union (telegraph me home)
God send me my paint by number (no fail guarantee)
If I colour in the lines
Won't you promise to be good to me
Promise to be good to me
Promise to be good
Promise
