Story Behind The Song
It is a true story. A friend's sister wrote the lyrics - had no music. I wrote the music. It sat unrecorded for years until I recorded it for my TEXAS MEDICINE Disc. You can check out the song on ITUNES.
Song Description
The verses describe things she can get her man to do - showing her power over him, but that power stems from her "goodies". Ha.

HER GOODIES AREN'T AS GOOD AS MINE (CHORDS ARE IN ORDER BUT MESSED UP BY THE PASTE)
(Fry, Bridges)

G C D7 G C D7 G
Her goodies aren't as good as mine I've known that all this time
C D7 G Em G C D7 G
She can't make him holler and whiiiiinnee Her goodies aren't as good as mine
G C D7 G G C D7 G
She can't make him walk the line Like I do all the time

She can't make him walk in the pale moonlight or make him go shopping on a Saturday night

Her goodies aren't as good as mine I've known that all this time
C D7 G Em C D7 G
She can't make him holler and whiiiiinnee Her goodies aren't as good as mine
