She’s My Best Friend Black

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
