Hes A Pretty Good Man
Buffy Sainte-Mary
[Verse 1] He’s got shoulders like a mountain And a smile like a sunny day The patience of a gardener And the will to find a way [Pre-chorus] A mind that’s strong and steady And a heart that’s good and true [Chorus] He’s a pretty good man if you ask me [Verse 2] His eyes are full of love Although his life has known its tears His soul is full of quiet fire That warms us through the years [Pre-chorus] His heart is full of faith (hope) and peace And other things we need [Chorus] He’s a pretty good man if you ask me [Bridge] Now his job may not be steady With his name upon the door But a dozen well-fed kids I know Seldom ask for more [Verse 3] He remembers all our birthdays With a hug and something nice And his lap is the sweetest place we know To make the world seem right [Pre-chorus] He’s lot of fun in a ticklin’ fight And when the snow is deep [Verse 4] He can calm a frightened animal Or rock a child to sleep We love him more than tongue can tell And more than song can sing [Chorus] He’s a pretty good man if you ask me [Pre-chorus] We love him more than tongue can tell And more than song can sing [Chorus] He’s a pretty good man if you ask me
