PETE
(Lanny Grey)

Doris Day - 1947


I've got a man, his name is Pete
He's awfully good and oh, so sweet
He's not the kind that you usually meet
He loves me so and I love Pete

A gal that I know loves a boy named Jim
Though he treats her mean she still loves him
And Sally loves Joe who's the kind that'll cheat
Some men are like that, but not my Pete

He never beats me, never mistreats me
He never teases, he only pleases
I take my troubles with a grain of salt
'Cause I've got a man without a fault

I put him on trial, he passed every test
Whatever he does, he does his best
I've got no complaints and my life is complete
'Cause I've got a man whose name is Pete

(Instrumental Break)

He never beats me, never mistreats me
He never teases, he only pleases
I take my troubles with a grain of salt
'Cause I've got a man without a fault

I put him on trial, he passed every test
Whatever he does, he does his best
I've got no complaints and my life is complete
'Cause I've got a man, what a man
His name is Pete
