I'll Be Around

Saw your picture in the morning paper

Bet your mama sure is proud

You finally found you a real straight lacer

All your dreams are finally gettin' buttoned down

But girl, you know that I know you too well

Before you cut the cake, before you ring that bell

I'll be around, around about the time you're wishin'

For a Friday evening with the rag top down

I'll be around, around like a second hand tickin'

In the nick of time, let me make you mine

When you long to feel the wind in your hair

When your choices seem a little too square

I'll be around

I'll be around

Girl, you never did like vanilla

You were more of the rocky road kind

You hated Princes and Cinderellas

Gravitated more to Bonnies and Clydes

Girl, I wish you happiness

But if you ever find that the show don't fit

I'll be around, around about the time you're wishin'

For a Friday evening with the rag top down

I'll be around, around like a second hand tickin'

In the nick of time, let me make you mine

When you long to feel the wind in your hair

When your choices seem a little too square

I'll be around

I'll be around

Yeah

Girl, you know that I know you too well

Before you cut the cake, before you ring that bell

I'll be around, around about the time you're wishin'

For a Friday evening with the rag top down

I'll be around, around like a second hand tickin'

In the nick of time, let me make you mine

When you long to feel the wind in your hair

When your choices seem a little too square

I'll be around

I'll be around

I'll be around

I'll be around

Yeah

I'll be around
