"Real Good Girlfriend" lyrics - THE MOUNTAIN GOATS

I woke up this morning
With my new girlfriend beside me
I don't have to lie about her
I don't need some dumb story to hide me
She turned twenty last April, she's as tall as I am
Came to this country all the way from Siam
I may not be the greatest guy in this town
People may have good 'cause to put me down
But I've got a real good girlfriend now

We stood on Chicago Avenue
And look, here comes the bus
Slipped on a solid sheet of ice
Watched the number 66 fly right past us
I may not be the greatest guy in this town
People may have good 'cause to put me down
But I got a real good girlfriend
I got a real good girlfriend
I got a real good girlfriend now
