Lyrics

[Verse 1]

There's a man in a blue plaid shirt come knocking

I don't know what he's coming for

But I know it probably isn't gonna hurt anybody

If I don't get up and answer the door

Now I believe I'll stay here on the floor

[Verse 2]

I'm gonna stand by my girl

Don't think I won't

I'm gonna stand by my girl

Because she'd kill me if I don't

I said, she'd kill me if I don't

[Verse 3]

I never shoulda messed up

I shoulda gone ahead and fessed up

I'm gonna look good all dressed up

For my own funeral

I'm sure she'll look beautiful

[Verse 4]

I'm gonna stand by my girl

Don't think I won't

I'm gonna stand by my girl

Because she'd kill me if I don't

I said, she'd kill me if I don't

[Verse 5]

I love a girl with fire in her eyes

That's what I used to say

But now I've come to realize

If I wanna live another day

I can't be living that way

[Verse 6]

I'm gonna stand by my girl

Don't think I won't

I'm gonna stand by my girl

Because she'd kill me if I don't

[Verse 7]

I'm gonna stand by my girl

Don't think I won't

I'm gonna stand by my girl

Because she'd kill me if I don't

I said, she'd kill me if I don't
