She Loves The Jerk

We've talked it to death Crying on the telephone Nights when he drinks at home She has to whisper through the tears “Darling,” she says, “You never do these things to me” But I could never make her see He's wasted such precious years “You married the wrong guy” is all I ever say He's a no-good so-and-so /G# But she'll never let him go /G Though she knows it'll never work, she loves the jerk She loves the jerk He was the guy Always out on the lake I guess he had what it takes To turn the heads of pretty girls She thought he would change The worst of us will settle down But he couldn't stay out of town Not even for this precious pearl Now she lives with the lies and the bumps and the bruises He's a no-good so-and-so /G# But she'll never let him go /G Though she knows it'll never work, she loves the jerk She loves the jerk I hang up the phone and I pretend she's in my arms What I wouldn't give for just one tenth of what she gives Mr. Charming He's a no-good so-and-so /Bb But she'll never let him go Though she knows it'll never work, she loves the jerk She loves the jerk She loves the jerk She loves the jerk She loves the jerk
