A
Oh, she's pretty and witty, soft-natured and sweet
Attractive and active, boy, clever and neat;
I've got a darn good reason now for being good.
A
I'm hazy and I'm crazy; I'm crazy for love,
She's willing for billing and she coos like a dove;
I've got a darn good reason now for being good.
B
I was just a rounder turning nighttime into day,
But now it's different; since this loving made me change
my way;
A
Oh she kills me and she thrills me; she has big satin
bows;
She knows it and she shows it wherever she goes.
I've got a darn good reason now for being good.
