Nine  times out of ten,  she's right  when I am wrong,
When  I won't give in, she  just goes along.
Standing  by my side, sittin'  home alone,
 I'll never  know what keeps her hangin' on,
 When anybody else  would be long gone.
 But once  in a blue moon,
I'll  do something right.
 And once  in a blue moon,
 I'll make  her feel  so fine.
 I can make  her laugh and make  her cry,
 She hates  the way she loves  me sometimes,
 But once  in a blue moon,  I'll do something right.
 She's starving  for affection,  so hungry  for loves touch,
 But she only  hears 'I  love you' when  we're making love.
Lord,  I'll always wonder  why she  loves me so much,
 When the best  I'll ever do won't be enough,
 So I'll  just thank my lucky  stars above.
 That once  in a blue moon,
I'll  do something right.
 And once  in a blue moon,
 I'll make  her feel  so fine.
 'Cause I can make  her laugh, oh and make  her cry,
 She hates  the way she loves  me sometimes.
Once  in a blue moon, once  in a blue moon,
 Every once  in a blue moon,  I'll do something right.
Once  in a blue  moon.
