Every Now And Then
My mother called me a drunken slob. Said go out and get a job.
I know she loved me she told me so. But I had to pack my things and go.
I moved out and got myself a wife
But I wasn't finished with my drinking life When the kids came along. 1 through 4. They'd find me drunk outside the door.
Papa got drunk. Please don't kill him!.
Papa's in jail. Please don't kill him!.
Papa need bail. Please don't kill him!.
I know she wants to kill me and you know she’s right. A man needs to get his **** kicked
By a good woman Ev’ry now and then
I stayed drunk, for many years.
Left my wife and kids in tears.
The woman I chose to be my bride
Never left my worthless side
Anniversary came, and I forgot
She went out and cried in the parking lot She stared at me and didn't say a thing So drunk I lost my wedding ring. (Refrain)
Let me tell you the greatest news. I've got a wife I'd hate to lose.
She puts HOT SAUCE on my steak. She puts AIR in ev’ry breath I take She put the stars up in the sky. But she’ll put her fist in my right eye. If she see’s LIPSTICK on my shirt. Who’s that woman? What miniskirt?”
This song is sung. The tune's all played. My wife could've left me but she stayed. I'm the luckiest man around.
She helped me put that bottle down. She tolerates my farting and my burping She’s okay with my coffee slurping.
But sometimes, she still wants to fight ‘Cause I leave the seat up every night.
