Rough Around the Edges

I'm a little rough around the edges

I didn't come out of no GQ magazine

And I don't use a lot of big words

But I'm bent on love if you know what I meanI ain't interested in bein' politically correct

I stand right up and say what I believe

I'm a little rough around the edges

But I think I'm exactly what you needAs you can see, I ain't all spit and polish

And every hair on my head ain't in its place

I ain't got no big degree from college

And I guess to tell the truth, I need a shaveI'm a little rough around the edges

I didn't come out of no GQ magazine

And I don't use a lot of big words

But I'm bent on love, if you know what I meanI ain't interested in bein' politically correct

I stand right up and say what I believe

I'm a little rough around the edges

But I think I'm exactly what you needWell, you may think I'm just a KC plowboy

Well, just give me a chance to strut my stuff

I don't shine like some pin-up poster cowboy

But neither does a diamond when you pick it upAnd I'm a little rough around the edges

I didn't come out of no GQ magazine

And I don't use a lot of big words

But I'm bent on love, if you know what I meanI ain't interested in bein' politically correct

I stand right up and say what I believe

I'm a little rough around the edges

But I think I'm exactly what you needI'm a little rough around the edges

But I think I'm exactly what you need
