Next Best Thing To Nothing

(アルバム： My Own Way - 1967)

I got hands that are Roman I got fingers that are Russian
So I got me a little gal and she's the next best thing to nothing
They say that she ain't pretty and they say that she ain't much
But when I go to work how she tingles at my touch
I don't wanna mess around I don't wanna have no fussing
So I finally found me a gal and she's the next best thing to nothing

I used to go out with the nice girls but man what a drag
Ev'ry time I tried to kiss one it was like a game of tag
And fore I knew what had happened they'd slap me across the car
I don't want that kind of loving on my face it's much too hard
They stick their nose up in the air and give me a real good cussing
Well I finally found me a gal and she's the next best thing to nothing

I remember the very first time that we went out on a date
Before I could drive a mile she was on me like a rattlesnake
She was a biting on my ears and a pulling at my hair
I said me and you baby we can really make a pair
Cause we don't wanna mess around we don't wanna have no fussing
Well I finally found me a gal she's the next best thing to nothing

Well I remember the very first time that we went out on a date...
Well I finally found me a gal and she's the next best thing to nothing
Well I finally found me a gal and she's the next best thing to nothing
