Etta As I See Her

Etta is only a girl, but she
Is the girl I'd like to be
She has her ups and downs
Yet she is good all around

She has her troubles quite a few
The same as you and I do
Still she manages to smile
Which helps to make life worthwhile

She's a friend who will stand
Will help you and do all she can
When you are glad she'll laugh with you
When you are sad she is blue

If I should ever be in need
I'd count her as a friend indeed
Her ways is gentle as a Dove
She a girl with eyes of Love

The boy who was her love so fair
Won't be made a mistake there
She's due the very best of men
One on whom she can depend

One who'll treat he like a queen
Make her life a perfect dream
And give her the best in life
For I know she'll make a perfect wife
