Can He Love You Half As Much As I - Ray Stevens

Well you say you just got married and your husband is a jewel

Graduated summa cum laude from a big north eastern school

Has a doctorate in Physics and a masters in Phys Ed

Was the captain of the football team, there’s not a book he hasn’t read

Well sure, but can he: ee-ah-ee-ooh, and can he play the spoons?

Make music with his armpits, little animals from balloons?

Can he whistle Dixie while eating crackers and covering one eye?

Can he love you half as much as I?

He’s climbing the corporate ladder, in business he’s a gem

General Motors never had a vice president as young as him

You say he wrote a computer program that saved 8 million bucks

And found a way to cut the cost on all their cars and trucks

Big deal, huh, can he: ee-ah-ee-ooh, and does he have my charms?

Can he wiggle his ears, juggle of beers and make a frog in your arms?

I bet he can’t do this no matter how hard he tries

Can he love you half as much as I?

You brag how he’s so cultured, how he sculptures and he writes

But did you know that now I go to culture classes every night?

I’m a devote and connoisseur of black velveteen art

I have a painting of Rambo that glows in the dark

So he makes 200,000 per and can press 300 pounds

So he drives a red Ferrari and lives on the snooty side of town

So you’re gonna sail around the world on his tacky gaudy yacht

So he spends vacations working with Mother Theresa in India, so what

That kind of superficiality can wear pretty thin

I just wanna know, can he: ee-ah-ee-ooh, and can he play the spoons?

Make music with his armpits, little animals from balloons?

Can he whistle Dixie while eating crackers and covering one eye?

Can he love you half as much

Does he have my charm, does he have my touch?

Can he love you half as much as I?
