GQ Man

Verse 1
My girlfriend's Cosmo magazine
Was in my truck lying on the seat
I was stuck in traffic bored to tears,
When I happened to notice she'd dog-eared
An article she wanted me to read
'Bout the kind of guy she wanted me to be
Ten steps to the perfect man
Girl, can't you see that's what I am
CH
Cause I dress like a cover of a magazine
Baby I'm talkin Field and Stream
I'm the poster child for masculinity
This good ole boy that you see
Is all that I aspire to be
Well excuse me ma'am if I ain't no GQ Man
Verse 2
I was sitting at the green light reading away
When a horn honked I heard someone say
Hey Nancy, is that a Cosmo that you're reading
What color dress are your wearing this evening
All red faced and downright disgusted
Awh man... I just got busted
There sat Bubba and all his friends
So I flipped 'em the bird and hollered back at them
CH
I dress like a cover of a magazine
Bubba I'm talkin Field and Stream
I'm the poster child for masculinity
This good ole boy that you see
Is all that I aspire to be
So, excuse me man, I ain't no GQ Man
Bridge
But if you stick around and you might discover
That you don't throw stones at a natural born lover
I'm me to a T and I'm proud of who I am
CH
I dress like a cover of a magazine
Bubba I'm talkin Field and Stream
I'm the poster child for masculinity
This good ole boy that you see
Is all that I aspire to be
So, excuse me now, I ain't no GQ Man
