Another Good Reason - by Darrell Elmer Rodgers
Copyright 2022 Darrell Elmer Rodgers

You've taken me to places and introduced me as your friend
You and I both know, that's not where this will end
You seem Afraid to say anything that might scare me away
so let me ease your mind about how I feel today
In plain and simple language, darling I love you
Staying close beside you, is what I want to do
That's another good reason
to keep me close at hand
Tell the world
I'm your man

I can plow your garden, Organize your shed
Rearrange the furniture, tighten up your bed
I can mow your lawn to association rules
I can fix your plumbing, baby, you know I've got the tools!
I can make the house repairs; I can fix the car
All I'm asking in return is to just be where you are
That's another good reason
to keep me close at hand
so Go ahead
Tell the world
I'm your man

~bridge~
I want those other guys to know just where you stand
to make it clear you don't need help from any other man
Remember that your girlfriends, who might have eyes for me
need to know I'm spoken for, with no uncertainty!
We've got a good thing, and I want this thing to last
Love growing stronger as the years go past
That's another good reason
to keep me close at hand
so Go ahead
Tell the world
I'm your man

You've caught a keeper, now reel me to the shore
You don't need to cast your line in that dating pool no more
I'll always be there to lend a helping hand
when you need a little somethin’, somethin’ done darlin', I'll do all I can
If you need more convincing, I'll be there till the end,
Remember who you turn to when you need a trusted friend
That's another good reason
to keep me close at hand
Go ahead
Tell the world
I'm your man
,, 'cause I am
Go ahead
Tell the world
I'm your man!
