George Jones Something To Brag About Lyrics

Something To Brag About Lyrics

I've got a real important job

In a large office buildin'

Ridin' people in an elevator



I drive a '57 Chevrolet

With busted tail lights

Burned out valves and a leaky radiator



I wear a twenty dollar suit

I bought from J.C. Penney's

Back in 1962



But I've got something to brag about

Something to brag about

Something to brag about in you



I'm a short-order cook

At an all night cafe

Down on 18th avenue and 12th street



I wear a swingin' mini dress

That I made for myself

From mama's kitchen curtains and old bed sheets



I've got 17 pages

Of Top Value stamps

And one old pair of shoes



But I've got something to brag about

Something to brag about

Something to brag about in you



When you're with the fellas, I know

You start braggin' 'bout

My hour glass figure and my big brown eyes



Tell 'em, you tell your girlfriends 'bout my

Sweet, sweet lovin'

And that's one better that money can't buy



So let's get married

In the not to distant future

We'll rent a little flat on 29th street



You know we'll hang our washin'

On the clothes line from the window

We'll feast on corn bread, butter beans and lunch meat



We won't have a thermostat

A big long Cadillac

But we'll have a love that's true



Love has something to brag about

Yeah and I'll have, something to brag about

Yeah, something to brag about in you
