Lyrics
My head’s in a whirl
Yesterday a girl altered everything for me
Oh my, what a comfort a girl can be
I was in a groove, thought I’d never move
Took a girl to prove me wrong
Till she came, life hadn’t begun
Now it is one sweet song
Refrain:
Her disposition is so sweet
She kinda sweeps you off your feet
Shy, unobtrusive, demure and elusive
She’s such a comfort to me
She says she’s fond of me because
I’m rather like Young Woodley was
She’s got a dimple and ways that are simple
She’s such a comfort to me
I don’t spend a lot of money
She’s got economic brains
We go walking when it’s sunny
And stay in when it rains
I love to hold her hand for hours
She doesn’t care for chocs or flowers
Thrifty and frugal, her name is McDougal
She’s such a comfort to me
Refrain:
Her disposition is so sweet
She kinda sweeps you off your feet
Shy, unobtrusive, demure and elusive
She’s such a comfort to me
I love the doughnuts that she bakes
I love the dough her father makes
His only daughter, he’s bound to support her
That’s such a comfort to me
If I crack a joke on Monday
She won’t leave me in the lurch
Six days later on the Sunday
She laughs out loud in church
I sit and talk while she keeps mum
Her education’s still to come
She thinks Gin and Tonic
Is something Masonic
She’s such a comfort to me
