I run at things too fast,
only give them half a chance-
Say what you want, what you will,
but it´s true.
I´m far too lazy,
I do enough but nothing more.
I like to drink, I like to play-
Do you too?
You never know
just what the blues are like
until you take
a taste of the sweet life.
I found an angel,
a reason to smile-
A best friend.
Until I knew her I never knew
what a woman can do-
Did what she want, did what she will-
Is it true?
She holds her own, she holds mine too,
we do a marry dance.
Do what we want, do what we will-
Do you too?
I brush her hair
and it crackles with the static-
I never meant to kiss her,
it was purely automatic.
She´s my angel,
she´s my Betty Blue,
she´s my best friend.
(solo)
Her fingers drumming time, drumming time,
Drumming on my heating heart.
I got it good, I´ve got it bad-
It´s true, uh-huh.
You never know
just what the blues are like
until you take
a taste of the sweet life.
I found an angel,
a reason to smile-
A best friend.
She´s gone,
she´s out of sight,
she´s my love me tender,
my P. G. fright,
my lady day in the dead of night,
my best friend.
She´s my best friend.
