She’s Not The Only Pebble On The Beach

Mark Coker©2011

If she puffs a little smoke in the morning

I’ll let that serve me as an early warning

The rings are wearing out – and soon without a doubt

I suppose I’m gonna have to trade her in

When they start to slip and whine – it’s just a matter of time

Until they leave you broken down again

I may be slow but I’m not that hard to teach

She’ll be surprised what lies within my reach

Before she leaves me walking – I’ll see what’s on the market

She’s not the only pebble on the beach

If she complains when I get home a minute late

I’ll explain and if that doesn’t set her straight

I’ll start to pack my things – and if she don’t know what that means

She’ll have to think about it on her own

I won’t stand here and debate – I’m looking for a date

Hold that thought until you see I’m gone

(Chorus)
