Every Guy's Dream (Marvin Shelton-ASCAP)

[Verse]
Laying here next to you tonight
While my lucky stars smile from above
How could anything feel so right?
I'm thinking I don't think I'll ever get enough

[CHORUS]
Even if I won the lottery
You would still mean more to me
So, I’ll be the man you need...me to be
Oh, lady now I finally see 
I’m living in a fantasy 
Yeah, I found me...every guy’s dream

[Verse]
The reason I stare into your eyes
and my hand reaches for your hand
You are the center of my life
I'm thinking God could not have had a better plan

[CHORUS]
Even if I won the lottery
You would still mean more to me
So, I’ll be the man you need...me to be
Oh, lady now I finally see 
I’m living in a fantasy 
Yeah, I found me...every guy’s dream

[Bridge]
You could make any guy's dream come true
But you spend your time giving me all of you!! Yeah!!!!!

[Solo]

[CHORUS]
I don’t need to know astrology
You’re the only star for me
So, I’ll be the man you need...me to be
Oh, lady now I finally see 
I’m living in a fantasy 
Yeah, I found me...every guy’s dream
I found me...every guy’s dream
Oh, you’re every guy’s dream!!

Every Guy's Dream

I'm all out of money
All out of work
The more I complain
The more it gets worse

I miss my family
I miss my friends
There's no one to blame
It's just how it is

I'm not sure how much more of this I can take
And I'm not quite ready to break

But I might be
If you need me
I'll be out back

Hiding from my problems
Sipping on a cold one
Wishing I could solve 'em
Yeah it is what it is man
What it is man
What it is

My gal she left me
My dog ran away
I burned down my trailer
And my truck don't run great

I'm not sure how much more of this I can take
And I'm not quite ready to break

But I might be
If you need me
I'll be out back

Hiding from my problems
Sipping on a cold one
Wishing I could solve 'em
Yeah 'tis what it is man
What it is man
What it is

What it is man
What it is man
What it is

Yankee Doodle - It Is What It Is Man

I chased the shimmer in the sand 
A promise glowing in my hand 
But it was dust It slipped It ran 
I thought it was real 

Thought it could heal But now I feel 
Fool's gold It shines It lies 
Caught me with those glittering eyes 
Fool's gold It breaks It bends 
Looks like a start but it’s the end

Fools gold .mp3

For Kitt, Oct 2009 - July 2025... there is nothing more to say.
