Subject: Lyr Add: SHE'S LOOKIN' BETTER EVERY BEER
Perhaps a takeoff on SHE'S LOOKIN' BETTER BY THE MINUTE.

SHE'S LOOKIN' BETTER EVERY BEER
New Riders of the Purple Sage

Well, I guess it's been at least an hour
And I didn't plan to stay.
I only dropped in to drink a beer,
Float off on my way.
It was a pale and rather plain girl
Over in the corner sippin' wine.
When I did not sit down at her table,
She sat down at mine.

CHORUS:
And she's lookin' better ev'ry beer.
Her hair is soft and shiny, now.
Her eyes are bright and clear.
How could it be I didn't notice her
When I first came in here?
Now she's lookin' better ev'ry beer.

Well, the bar lights and the candles
Show a little color on the chin,
And two by two, the people leave.
One by one came in.
The jukebox plays and the Coke-filled ashtrays
Warn the time flies.
Ev'ry time I drain my mug,
I can't believe my eyes. - Wow!

CHORUS [with emphasis and a little slurred voice]:

She's lookin' better ev'ry beer.
[Oh yes you are, aw!]
Her hair is soft and shiny, now.
Her eyes are bright and clear.
How could it be I didn't notice her
When I first came in here?
Now, she's lookin' better ev'ry beer.
