You Can Do Better Than Him

I give you fair warning

He's no bed of roses

sweet bonnie

I can't see him

finding the time

To raise children hell no

He's wild and he's reckless

Ain't nothing but trouble

You're better without him

Ya think hard sweet bonnie

And then you should

think once again

We both know

You can do better than him

Why you deserve someone

who's there all the time

Someone who thinks

crime don't pay

I still see the snowy white

dress that you wore

Playing the angel in

some dumb school play

For a while I thought

that you would fly away

I still see the apple cheeked

girl that you were-yep

Hidin' in treetops

And feeding the birds

Makin' up rhymes

How you loved pretty words

You could find someone

that people respect

A man who is rich and smart

Someone who's known in

all the right places

And knows the good

book by heart

But I know

But I know

You won't do better than me

No not when it comes down

to love that is true

There's no man who could

love you like I do
