Best Girl

She ain't the kind to ask for diamonds
Never needed the fancy things
Just our song on the kitchen radio
And me still wearin' this weddin' ring
Comin' home from second shifts and Sundays
And she keeps a light on every night
When the whole world feels like it's against me
She just pulls me close and makes it right

She's my best girl
The steady in my whole crazy world
Every mile I drive, every clock I punch
I'm doin' it all for her
Let the lean years come and go
I'm still the richest man I know
'Cause she's my best girl

We still dance in this kitchen with the radio on
Our girl's down the hall, finally asleep
And whatever's comin', we'll dance right through it
That's a promise I aim to keep
She's got a little gray she don't bother coverin'
I say leave it, and she just laughs
She's prettier now than the day I married her
And I'd marry her again in a heartbeat and a half

She's my best girl
The steady in my whole crazy world
Every mile I drive, every clock I punch
I'm doin' it all for her
Let the lean years come and go
I'm still the richest man I know
'Cause she's my best girl

And when we're old and our girl's grown and gone
I'll still find her in the kitchen every night
Turn that radio up, take my best girl's hand
And dance her 'round the floor by the stove light

She's my best girl
The steady in my whole crazy world
Every mile I drive, every clock I punch
I'm doin' it all for her
Let the lean years come and go
I'm still the richest man I know
'Cause she's my best girl
