"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 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
