You Better Get a Lawyer

She wants the kids, the house, the car,
You better get a lawyer
You can keep the dogs and your old guitar,
Better get a lawyer
You don't count, you don't rate
She's gonna move right out of state
You better get a lawyer

You shouldn't get caught running around
You better get a lawyer
Never shoulda put her daddy down
You better get a lawyer
She's got the junk, she's got the facts
You get the trunk and you get the axe
You better get a lawyer

It was so fine, it was so sweet
You better get a lawyer
You're running into debt, 'cause you're dead meat
You better get a lawyer
To tie the knot just takes two
To untie one takes her and you
And you better get a lawyer

Someday you'll say, when all this ends
You better get a lawyer
Maybe you two would've stayed friends
If it wasn't for the lawyers
