From "The Buffy Sainte-Marie Songbook"

HE'S A PRETTY GOOD MAN (IF YOU ASK ME)
As sung by Buffy Sainte-Marie on "I'm Gonna Be a Country Girl Again"

He's got shoulders like a mountain and a smile like a sunny day,
The patience of a gard'ner and a will to find a way.
A mind that's strong and steady and a heart that's good and true.
He's a pretty good man if you ask me.

His eyes are full of love although his life has known its tears.
His soul is full of quiet fire that warms us through the years.
His heart is full of hope and peace and other things we need.
He's a pretty good man if you ask me.

Now his job may not be steady with his name upon the door,
But a dozen well-fed kids I know seldom ask for more.
He remembers all our birthdays with a hug and something nice,
And his lap is the sweetest place we know to make the world seem right.

He's a lot of fun in a ticklin' fight and when the snow is deep
He can calm a frightened animal or rock a child to sleep.
We love him more than tongue can tell and more than song can sing.
He's a pretty good man if you ask me.

We love him more than tongue can tell and more than song can sing.
He's a pretty good man if you ask me.
