I Love Her, That's Why Lyrics - Singles - George Burns

George Burns: 

She wakes me up when I'm in slumber deep 

To ask me if I really am asleep 

Why do I stand for it? 

I love her, that's why! 

She calls the doctor when I need some bread 

And calls the banker when I'm sick in bed 

Why do I stand for it? 

I love her, that's why! 

Life with her is unpredictable 

But I'm a guy who knows no fear 

Her jibber-jabbering may puzzle you and me 

But to her it's perfectly clear 

She'll make a date with me then make me wait 

And then she'll bawl me out for being late 

Why do I stand for it? 

Oh, I love her, that's why! 

Gracie Allen: 

He serenades me with that gravel voice 

I have to listen cuz I have no choice 

Why do I stand for it? 

I love him, that's why! 

He'll keep repeating all his corny jokes 

And making snide remarks about my folks 

Why do I stand for it? 

I love him, that's why! 

Life with him is so lugubrious 

Whatever that may mean, I'm sure 

He calls me sweetie pie but never tells me why 

Now you see what I must endure 

He'll start a quarrel over silly things 

Like wrecking cars or losing diamond rings 

Why do I stand for it? 

I love him, that's why!
