Black Eyes 

oh, oh, why you wanna give me a black eye 
I'm not the best man in this world, but I know that I'll do 
oh, oh, why you wanna give me a black eye 
I'm not the best man in this world, but I know that I'll do 

coffee at 7 and then I'm at work by 9 
I always thought the carefree style would be the way I lived my life 
been trippin on 1992 when all you did was smile 
I guess that that's what was on my mind the day I asked you to be my wife 

now I say oh, oh, why you wanna give me a black eye 
I'm not the best man in this world, but I'm the best one for you 

I put away one day this week it was just for you and me 
there was nothing much to fight about as far as I could see 
do you remember when I was 8 and you were 5 
I spent a lifetime with you girl and now you sock me in my eye 

so I say oh, oh, why you wanna give me a black eye 
I'm not the best man in this world, but I'm the best one for you 

black eye, the soul brains, human rights

if you asked me I would cross the greatest ocean 
with wieghts tied to my toes 
I would do that 
I would walk over burning coals I would even 
jump the grand canyon on a motor bike 
I would do that 
there's so many things that I would do if you asked me to 
but there is this one thing 
you shouldn't ask me 
don't never never ask me to turn down the Ziggens 
I would not do that 
so don't ask me
