Tried &True

It's a tried and true love, not the jealous kind
It's a black and blue love
Honey, where ya been since ya been mine?
Chorus:
Tried and true love
Tried and true love
It's a daylight moonshine, not the night light kind
It's a tried and true love
Honey, where ya been since ya been mine?
(Chorus) * 2
(Verse 2)
(Chorus) *2
