[Verse 1]
GI'll tell you about the driver, that Clives inside my Ghead
Gstarts me up and Cstops me, and Emputs me into Dbed
Ghe opens up my mouth, when its Ctime for me to Gtalk
Gand fires up my Clegs when he wants me to Gwalk

CKeeps my eyes Gopen,  Cfor most of the Gday
Cadds to my Gmemory,  the Emthings that people Dsay
Cwhen he makes deGcisions,  CI don't have to Emwait
Cand sometimes it seems that he's got too much on his Gplate
[Verse 2]
GLike this morning when I woke up, Cand he dressed me in this Gshirt
Git looks a little Cragged where he Emdragged me through the Ddirt
GI'm moving through this life, Cand I'm thinking about the Gnext
GI'm hoping when I Cget there, I'll be better Gdressed
