Once  I had a  little girl  as pretty as I have knownss
Lord,  you know I loved her so and then she  let me all alone-i
 And I swore  here on this barstool  I'd never make that mistake again
 Well you ain't  so fine but you're  all mine and I'll love  you till the end
 So darlin'  don't you worry  'cause they  say love is blind
Lust  has eyes like an eagle  it's gonna drive  me outta my mind
 Though my  eyes sometimes wander  it doesn't mean that I'm untrue
 You're not the best  but you're the best  that I  can do
 You know a pretty girl she'll leave you, leave you to drown in your own tears
 You know any ugly girl well, she'll leave you too but then again who really cares
 And them eyes of blue they cannot be true they'll have to stay here in my dreams
 I guess that's why old Hugh Hefner invented Playboy Magazine
 So, sit down here beside me girl and I will tell you what we will do
 We're gonna twist them lids and hope our kids look more like me than you
 And when that bottle is finally empty, we're gonna tumble across the floor
 And I'm gonna pray my imagination is gonna pull me through once more
 You're not the best but you're the best that I can do
