I Got A Wife

The Mark IV

(Mascari/Wenzlaff)





(Hey, I got a wife at home

I got a wife at home

I got a wife she's the apple of my life

But I wish she would leave me alone)



When I hear

Hang your clothes up

Wipe your feet off

Goodness sakes don't slam the door

Fix the socks and dry the dishes

Can't you see what's in the drawer

Hang the picture

Set the table

Don't drop ashes on the floor

Heat the bottle

Change the baby

She don't love me anymore



(He don't love her anymore

There he goes right out the door

He'll be back 'bout half past ten

And then she'll start right in again)



Tack the shade up

Wash the windows

Wipe the handprints off the door

Change the light bulbs

Scrub the bathtub

Pick the toys up from the floor

Tape the lamp cord

Make some coffee

Burn the garbage

Oil the door

Get the kids

And call my mother

She don't love me anymore



(I got a wife at home

I got a wife at home

I got a wife she's the apple of my life

But I wish she would leave me alone)



When I hear

OK OK I'll do it

Yeah OK

Honey, honey

Please, honey

Yeah I'll do it

QUIET!!



(He don't love her anymore

There he goes right out the door

He'll be back 'bout half past ten

And then she'll start right in again)

(Sheeee!!)
