Lyrics A Man's Best Friend Is A Bed - Louis Jordan & His Tympany Five

A Man's Best Friend Is A Bed

I want a great big comfortable bed,
so I can really spread out, and all that
Take it from me Ed, A man’s best friend is a bed
I want a big fat pillow that’s
softer than a billowy cloud, for my head
Take it from me Nat, A best head piece ain’t a hat
Yes, a friend will ditch you, a horse will pitch you
A car will give you lots of grief
A dog will bite you, Your wife will fight you
But if you want some genuine relief
Just get a great big comfortable bed,
where you can really spread out, and all that
Take it from me Ted, a man’s best friend is a bed
When you’re in trouble, worries double
And everybody’s talking back
Just take your shoes off, you’ll shake the blues off
If you would just let go when hit the sack
In a nice cool comfortable bed where you can spread, and all that
Take it from me Ted, a man’s best friend is a bed
Ask any soldier, marine or sailor
Any one who’s been without, what do they miss most
What thought is foremost?
No Sir, you’re wrong
It’s just a great big comfortable bed,
where can really spread out, and all that
Take it from me Ted, a man’s best friend is a bed
Yeah, if you dig me Jack, You’ll hit the sack
This ain’t no junk boy, hit that bar
Take it from me Ted, A man’s best friend is a bed
