Tammy Wynette
TAMMY WYNETTE
Things were so much different then back in the day
When the Grand Ol' Opry was a block from broadway
For a dollar you could buy a beer and a pack of cigarettes
And a man could find a woman like Tammy Wynette
She would have a mile high beehive eyelashes out to there
She would stay at home a cook my supper
__raise the children she would bear
I'll search the whole world over from California to Tibet
There must be one woman left like Tammy Wynette
She would be my one and only love not just the next of 5 or 6
I'll buy her costume jewelry, she, my guitar picks
It will be a match made in heaven a blessed duet
When I find that woman like Tammy Wynette

When I come home drunk and ornery
She will understand
Because a girl like Tammy
Stands by her man
My mother will approve of her right from the start
She'll say "you finally brought me home a lady
__not one of your usual tarts"
Mother will just have to wait because I haven't found her yet
I'm still looking for a woman like Tammy Wynette
