Rodney Crowell - She Loves The Jerk Lyrics
We've talked it to death, cryin' on the telephone
Nights when he drinks at home
She has to whisper throught her tears
"Johnny," she says, "You'd never do these things to me"
But I can never make her see he's wasted such precious years
He's a no good so and so, but she'll never let him go
Though she knows it will never work, she loves the jerk
She loves the jerk
He was the guy always out on the make
I guess he had what it takes to turn the heads of pretty girls
She thought he would change; the worst of us will settle down
But he couldn't stay out of town, not even with this precious pearl
Now she lives with the lies and the bumps and the bruises
He's a no good so and so, but she'll never let him go
Though she knows it will never work, she loves the jerk
She loves the jerk
Well, I hang up the phone and I pretend she's in my arms
What I wouldn't give for just one-tenth of what she gives Mister Charming
He's a no good so and so, but she'll never let him go
Though she knows it will never work, she loves the jerk
She loves the jerk
He's a no good so and so, but she'll never let him go
Though she knows it will never work, she loves the jerk
She loves the jerk

Rodney Crowell She Loves The Jerk Comments
Great song.
This song actually turned me on to John Hiatt,who wrote it great song especially that bridge.
In the grand tradition of "Where Were You When I Needed You?", "Back On The Street Again". I've seen a lot of true-live examples of the relationships described in this song.
