Lyrics

SHE’S A KEEPER

I met this girl
Some time ago
Think I told her,
“Let’s take it slow!”
I think she said
That she agreed,
“Love’s not a bet
That’s guaranteed.”
My brain shot out
One great big shout:
“Jeepers Creepers,
She’s a keeper!
She’s a keeper!

Now,
She buys my beer,
She pays the rent.
Her being here’s
No accident.
She always sees
The world my way;
Says she loves me
More each day.
She even ignores
How loud I snore -
She’s a sound sleeper;
She’s a keeper!
She’s a keeper!

She cooks each meal
To perfection.
Her love is real,
Pure affection.
Well, I’m not sure
Why she sticks around,
But I’m grateful for
The love I’ve found.
She aims to please;
Waits till I leave
To run the sweeper –
She’s a keeper!
She’s a keeper!

Washes my clothes,
Irons ‘em too,
And Heaven knows
Just what I’d do,
If she left me
For some other guy,
I’d surely be
Too sad to cry.
Buy her a dress,
She points and says,
“This one’s cheaper.”
She’s a keeper!
She’s a keeper!
She’s a keeper!
