I'll spend ten dollars on a sidewalk rose He'll pick out the color that she paints her Tell her how good she looks when she buys new clothes Cause it matters to her I don't get too crazy when we go out Don't wear these old boots inside her house And when her mama's around I'll watch my mouth Cause it matters to her I keep on saying she's pretty when I've told her that a million times No matter who's there with me I'll hold her hand in mine When she gets a little sad or gets a little mad I listen to her every word Cause it matters to her I like a quiet night when I get the chance And to tell the truth I don't love to dance But if she wants to go out I'll change my plans Cause it matters to her I keep on saying she's pretty when I've told her that a million times No matter who's there with me I'll hold her hand in mine When she gets a little sad or gets a little mad I listen to her every word Cause it matters to her I keep on saying she's pretty when I've told her that a million times No matter who's there with me I'll hold her hand in mine When she gets a little sad or gets a little mad I listen to her every word Cause it matters to her I know it matters to her I know it matters to her
