My Loving Wife

(álbum: Nothing Ever Hurt Me (Half As Bad As Losing You) - 1973)

My brand new car has a dent in the fender
I'm so mad I could shout
But there's no need for me to complain
For she'll do it the very next time out.

Just a while ago my banker told me
That again, we were overdrawn
She writes to many checks but what the heck
My loving wife has never done me wrong.

The food she prepares I know is the best
That's ever been put on a plate
And hour by hour she's by the telephone
That's her favorite gossip place.

The house stays messed up most all of the time
It's a site for friends to come around
I know thing aren't spick and span but on the other hand
My loving wife has never left me down.

And she loves me
That makes everything alright
She's always there waiting for me
When I come home at night.

The clothes she buys cost me way to much
But I know that it's me she dresses for
She may not have perfect ways but I tell her everyday
My loving wife, I love you like you are
