One rainy morning my wife and I we thought we'd spend the day
In tidying up the attic lots of things were in the way
Well, what do you think we came across, I blushed I felt so bad
You'd pay a fortune for one of those things, if another one could be had
So I picked it up, and dusted it off, and then I painted it blue
And honest to goodness I'm telling you it looked as good as new
Oh, I bless the day it came my way, my wife is happier too
I feel like a boy and life's a joy, it looked as good as new
Honest and true
Honest and true
As good as new
I shoved it here and pushed it there to bring it up to style
The neighbors all came to see it, well you should have seen them smile
The traffic was getting heavy, so the cops came around one day
And said for the sake of propriety do hide it far away
Cause I picked it up, and dusted it off, and then I painted it blue
And honest to goodness I'm telling you it looked as good as new
Oh, I bless the day it came my way, my wife is happier too
I feel like a boy and life's a joy, it looked as good as new
Honest and true
Honest and true
As good as new
It must have made the women stare a hundred years ago
It's as good as the day they made it and I really ought to know
Some are too big and some are small, and some are painted green
But, mine is by far the nicest one that I have ever seen
Oh, I bless the day it came my way, my wife is happier too
I feel like a boy and life's a joy, it looks as good as new
Honest and true!
