"Girlfriends"

My old girlfriend’s in the kitchen
She’s there waiting patiently
I’m on the couch with my new girl
We’re working on a melody
I got a girl in the bedroom
In case I stay up late
One more in the back seat of my car
Because we have a date

With all these girls in my life
I never stray too far
Each one is beautiful and shapely
Each one is a six-string guitar

They never fight with each other
Don’t need to share my last name
They don’t mind when I bring home another
I have never heard them complain
When I want to make sweet music
Any old time night or day
They wait to feel my hands around them
They never turn me away

This girl here needs little maintenance
Just a change of clothes now and then
A set of strings and a dust cloth
And she’s ready to go again
Don’t care for diamonds or sports cars
And she doesn’t ever nag at me
If I don’t lend her out or sell her
That’s the way it always will be
