Half as Good a Girl

Half as Good a Girl - Wanda Jackson

Written by：Rhoders

While walking down the street one day

I heard a girl to another one mournfully say

Mary oh Mary I'd be the happiest girl in town

If I was half as good a girl as my mother thinks I am

I thought of you and the wrongs I have done

I took chances and cheated and thought it was fun

I could still have your sweet love your ring on my hand

If I was half as good a girl as my mother thinks I am

I've been down many highways and go out every night

But my conscience still hurts me I know it's not right

Girls remember this story before you go too far

Are you half as good a girl as your mother thinks you are

I saw you today with a wonderful girl

In her arms was a baby with cute little curls

I had a cold empty feeling I could still have your love

If I was half as good a girl as my mother thought I was

I've been down many highways and go out every night

But my conscience still hurts me I know it's not right

Girls remember this story before you go too far

Are you half as good a girl as your mother thinks you are
