I was walking through Target and noticed all the markdowns the day after Valentines Day and my mind began to wander. I jotted down a few notes and James came up with a cool melody shaped it a bit . I think a half priced box of chocolates a day late is a good deal...
YOU CAN CALL ME CHEAP

I don't mean to look cheap the day after Valentine's Day
I bought her a half priced box of chocolates and a sexy negligee
You know that day old bread I get.......it ain't so bad
When you cut away the fuzzy part it's the best you ever had...
YOU CAN CALL ME CHEAP THAT'S ONE WAY TO LOOK AT IT
My wife will tell you this.........I'VE KEPT her IN CHOCOLATE
I'M A FRUGAL MESS I MUST CONFESS IT STARTED YEARS AGO
I GOT A BARGAIN ON OUR WEDDING RINGS...WHEN ED'S FINANCEE SAID NO
If I'd known about dates on birth control there'd be no little Suzy
But I love my little girl ........she's a tightwad just like .....AH HA ME
she sure loves........... her day-after-Christmas toys
To watch her stretch a dollar...brings a proud father joy
Chorus
Bridge
I come from a long line of Scottish-Appalachians.......and I'm proud of it
In 1950 my dad started the Limbo craze by walking under a pay toilet
Chorus
