The Lyrics
This is not about my darling Mari.
IT'S MY WIFE
It's all hard work- those "Honey-do" jobs
I just catch up and there's new jobs
When married for years
You can't show any fear
You can't slack on those chores
Or there's yelling you hear
Right in my ear
Don't wanna rile that wife-mine
Swore an oath for a lifetime
Hear that command
I'm in the noose, I bought the goose
House needs repair, I am there
And Oy, vey, Oy, vey
Remember, remember
It's my wife and I'll do what she says
It's a grind, but I'll think like she wants
Tells me I'm wrong, ev-e-ry time
But worth it so she doesn't whine
There are women and there's lawyers
That's why wed men are just voyeurs
If caught in a lie
They'll be squeezing you dry
Takin' half of your pay, every day
And buy things you won't buy
And live on your money
Believe me sonny, blood money
That she'd receive, pay her, I ain't!
So I paint
That girl puts out
Plenty clout
And Oy, vey, Oy, vey
Remember, remember
It's my wife and I'll do what she says
It's a grind, but I'll think like she wants
Tells me I'm wrong, ev-e-ry time
But worth it so she doesn't whine
It's all hard work- those "Honey-do" jobs
I just catch up and there's new jobs
When married for years
You can't show any fear
You can't slack on those chores
Or there's yelling you hear
Right in my ear
Don't wanna rile that wife-mine
Swore an oath for a lifetime
Hear that command
I'm in the noose, I bought the goose
House needs repair, I am there
And Oy, vey, Oy, vey
Remember, remember
It's my wife and I'll do what she says
It's a grind, but I'll think like she wants
Tells me I'm wrong, ev-e-ry time
But worth it so she doesn't whine
There are women and there's lawyers
That's why wed men are just voyeurs
If caught in a lie
They'll be squeezing you dry
Takin' half of your pay, every day
And buy things you won't buy
And live on your money
Believe me sonny, blood money
That she'd receive, pay her, I ain't!
So I paint
That girl puts out
Plenty clout
And Oy, vey, Oy, vey
Remember, remember
It's my wife and I'll do what she says
It's a grind, but I'll think like she wants
Tells me I'm wrong, ev-e-ry time
But worth it so she doesn't whine

Hey, Rick, I think you entered your name in the original performer field and vice versa.
Oops I did it again! I've been under the weather and it's showing.
As a wedded veteran of 8 years, this one hits to the marrow. Good stuff Rick.
If you were over the weather, that would just mean you're on a plane, right?
