IF IT WASN'T FOR ME, YOU WOULDN'T HAVE A GIRLFRIEND

Our friends all know about you and me,
If it wasn't for me, where would you be?
There are days when you dress like you don't care.
And you need me to tell you what shirts to wear,
I'm not just sensible,
I'm indispensable.

chorus
I know when you're happy, I know when you're sad,
I know when you're good, and when you've been bad.
I know you like the back of my hand,
If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have a girlfriend.

We know which one of us wear's the pants,
But sometimes I have to lead when we dance.
Honey, that's just the way it goes,
I'm stoppin' you from steppin' on my toes.
I know you're not a fool,
You know I'm irreplaceable.

chorus
I know when you're happy, I know when you're sad,
I know when you're good, and when you've been bad.
I know you like the back of my hand,
If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have a girlfriend.

Guitar solo

You're a little bit shy and I think that's cute,
You're a pussy cat in cowboy boots.
I'm the only one besides your momma who gets you.

chorus
I know when you're happy, I know when you're sad,
I know when you're good, and when you've been bad.
I know you like the back of my hand,
Baby, I know you're all man,
You're not too hung up to understaaaand.
If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have a girlfriend.
If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have a girlfriend.
If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have a girlfriend.
