Tampa Red - So Far, So Good

Folks used to tell me what my gal would do
Said she was sure to break my heart in two
But all I kept saying "So far so good"

They said she was funny as a girl could be
They said she was sure to make a fool of me
But all I kept saying "So far so good"

Now we got 'em guessin'
All around the neighborhood
But all they kept saying "So far so good"
Play that!

If I had a-listen'd to what the people say
I would'a been out of a good gal today
But all I kept saying "She's so far so good"

They said she would leave me for somebody else
I made up my mind to see it for myself
But all I kept saying "She's so far so good"

We've been together 8 long years to date
If that gal did anything wrong
She did it in a decent way
