JEWEL IN MY EYES

She's got,

Brown tiger eyes,

Sparkling warm in their gaze.

She's got,

Red ruby lips,

Full an' hot as a fire blaze.

She's got,

Gold amber skin,

So beautiful an' smooth it's glowing.

And black pearl hair,

Over her shoulder it's flowing.

But she's got,

A diamond rough heart,

That is hard to cut.

It's got a lot of scratches,

'Cause she keeps it tight shut.

She's a jewel in my eyes.

So hard to find.

She's a jewel in my eyes.

Her light,

So bright,

It blinds,

My eyes.
