Second Hand Satin Lady (And A Bargain Basement Boy)

(album: Half Singin' And Half Pickin' - 1979)

Well I bet we sure look shabby to the prying eyes of town
You in your tattered dungarees me in my hand me downs
All they see of you and me are the worn out clothes we wear
They don't see the rich love that we share

For a second hand satin lady and a bargain basement boy
You're my ragged angel I'm your shabby pride and joy
In your Salvation Army dress and me in my Goodwill shoes
Living proof that the hard times can be the good times too

That old junk store kitchen table well it's about to fall right down
The curtains you made sure fit quite well with that old stuffed chair we found
That old lumpy bed in the bedroom has the stuffing showing through
But it's heaven when I'm lying next to you

For a second hand satin lady and a bargain basement boy
You're my ragged angel I'm your shabby pride and joy
In your Salvation Army dress and me in my Goodwill shoes
Living proof that the hard times can be the good times too
Honey if I'm with you

We can see the crack in the ceiling when we're lying here at night
Dreaming our dreams together in the glare of the one bare light
But honey if the dreams we dream do or don't come true
I'm still gonna be right here to dream with you
I'll gladly go through the hardest times with you
Oh honey I can make it long as I got you
