Grandpa asked for Grandma's hand one week in
He said, you find a good thing, you go for it
I knew you were a good thing the very first night
And three years later I know that I was right

And it's a good thing, too;
I wouldn't want to lose you.

First time we kissed upside down in a funny way
We listened to Paul Simon and I feared you'd run away
But the music that night was so sweet, we could not but stay
After being folksingers in NYC the rest is a piece of cake

And it's a good thing, too;
I wouldn't want to lose you.

How rich the time with you by my side
And I hope that you'll be mine for all my lucky life
I knew you were a good thing the very first night
And sixty years from now I'll still know I was right

And it's a good thing, too;
I wouldn't want to lose you.
