to the tune of CLOSE ENOUGH TO PERFECT by Carl E. Chambers
Performed by Alabama (c) 1982
Sometimes he just can’t help but sing his song
And sometimes what he says, he says all wrong
Right or wrong, he's there to help out
Like only a friend would be
And that's close enough to perfect for me
Now he's been known to not be very bright
And truthfully he can’t exactly fight
Heaven knows he's not a warrior
But he'd really like to be
And that's close enough to perfect for me
He’s loud and he’s obnoxious, he has a goofy smile
He’s also sweet and caring, I can see it in his eyes
Don't you tell me you don’t like Joxer
Or what you think he ought to be
He's close enough to perfect for me
Sometimes he falls down -- He sometimes lies
But in the end he always does what’s right
He has his faults, but he is learning
He’s trying to succeed
He's close enough to perfect for me
He’s brazen, he’s annoying, he has a goofy smile
He’s also kind and loving, I can see it in his eyes
Don't you tell me you don’t like Joxer
Or what you think he ought to be
He's close enough to perfect for me
Oh, he's close enough to perfect -- for me
