I’M THE FIRST THING THAT SHE SEES WHEN SHE WAKES UP
I’M THE PICTURE ON HER FAVORITE COFFE CUP
SHE’S GOT ME WRAPPED AROUND HER FINGER
YEAH, I FIT HER LIKE A GLOVE
HER MAMA CRIED ON THE DAY SHE BROUGHT ME HOME
HER DADDY SMILED ‘CAUSE HE KNEW HIS GIRL WAS GONNA MAKE IT ON HER OWN
MY BEST FRIEND AND HER LOVER TREATS ME LIKE A BROTHER
EVEN THOUGH I’M JUST AN OLD COLT 44
IF SOMEONE KICKS DOWN THAT FRONT DOOR
WHEN I GET DONE THEY WON’T NO MORE
I GOT HER BACK AND I’M ON HER SIDE
HE’S THERE FOR HER WHEN SHE NEEDS A HAND
I GUESS A WOMAN NEEDS A MAN
TO HOLD HER TIGHT AND KISS GOOD NIGHT
HE’S HER CALM AND I’M HER STORM
I KEEP HER SAFE - HE KEEPS HER WARM
HE CAN’T ALWAYS BE THERE THAT’S WHY HE GOT ME
SHE TOLD HIM A NIGHT ALONE FELT LIKE ETERNITY
SO I TAKE OVER FOR HER FELLA – SLEEPING RIGHT THERE ON HIS PILLA
KEEPING WATCH WHILE SHE FALLS FAST ASLEEP
(REPEAT 1ST CHORUS)
HE’S A GOOD STRONG CARING MAN
HE’S THERE FOR HER WHEN SHE NEEDS A HAND
AND I MAKE SURE HE ALWAYS TREATS HER RIGHT
IF SOMEONE KICKS DOWN THAT FRONT DOOR
YOU CAN BET YOUR GRASS THEY WON’T NO MORE
SHE WON’T MISS WHEN SHE GETS ‘EM IN MY SIGHTS
HE’S HER CALM AND I’M HER STORM
I KEEP HER SAFE - HE KEEPS HER WARM
THOUGH I’M JUST AN OLD COLT 44
I KEEP HER SAFE - HE KEEPS HER WARM
I’M THE FIRST THING THAT SHE SEES WHEN SHE WAKES UP
