He's A Pretty Good Man If You Ask Me: Video-Lyrics by Buffy Sainte-Marie



He's A Pretty Good Man If You Ask Me From Album I'm Gonna Be A Country Girl Again

He's got shoulders like a mountain
and a smile like sunny day,
the patience of a gard'ner
and the will to find a way
A mind taht's strong and steady
and a heart that's good and true.
He's a pretty good man if you ask me.

His eyes are full of love
although his life has known its tears.
His soul is full of quite fire
taht warms us through the years.
His heart is full of faith (hope) and peace
and other things we need.
He's a pretty good man if you ask me.

Now his job may not be steady
with his name open the door,
but a dozen well-fed kids I know
seldom ask for more.
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.

He's lot of fun in a ticklin' fight
and when the snow is deep,
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.
He's a pretty good man if you ask me.
