Written By David Allan Coe
YOU CAN COUNT ON ME, GIRL, YOU CAN COUNT ON ME
I WON'T EVER LET YOU DOWN, YOU CAN COUNT ON ME
YOU SAY YOU WANT A WORKING MAN
TO BRING THE MONEY HOME
SOMEONE TO BE GOOD TO YOU
AND NEVER DO YOU WRONG
A MAN THAT WANTS TO SETTLE DOWN
AND PUT HIS FEET ON SOLID GROUND
YOU WANT A LOVE THAT'S SAFE AND SOUND
YOU CAN COUNT ON ME.
YOU SAY YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A MAN
TO BE THERE WHEN YOU CALL
SOMEONE WHO WILL STAND BY YOU
AND NEVER LET YOU FALL
A MAN THAT YOU CAN CALL YOUR OWN
A MAN THAT YOU CAN TRUST ALONE
TO LOVE WHEN THE CHILDREN'S GROWN
YOU CAN COUNT ON ME.
YOU CAN COUNT ON ME, GIRL, YOU CAN COUNT ON ME
I WON'T EVER LET YOU DOWN, YOU CAN COUNT ON ME
YOU SAY YOU WANT A WORKING MAN
TO BRING THE MONEY HOME
SOMEONE TO BE GOOD TO YOU
AND NEVER DO YOU WRONG
A MAN THAT WANTS TO SETTLE DOWN
AND PUT HIS FEET ON SOLID GROUND
YOU WANT A LOVE THAT'S SAFE AND SOUND
YOU CAN COUNT ON ME.
YOU SAY YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A MAN
TO BE THERE WHEN YOU CALL
SOMEONE WHO WILL STAND BY YOU
AND NEVER LET YOU FALL
A MAN THAT YOU CAN CALL YOUR OWN
A MAN THAT YOU CAN TRUST ALONE
TO LOVE WHEN THE CHILDREN'S GROWN
YOU CAN COUNT ON ME.
