Skeeter Davis - A Place in the Country

I'm a Lover (Not a Fighter)

I only married you for love, dear
I didn't go for all of your dough
Now and then you say you love me
But honey, baby, it don't show

I never seemed to please you lately
'Cause all you ever do is complain
I'm sick of this fussin' and fightin'
So baby, let your loving woman explain

I'm a lover not a fighter
I kinda like it that way
If you want a fightin' partner
Go live with Cassius Clay

A woman is soft and tender
And willing to love her man
So why don't you take advantage
Of the woman that you know I am

I don't want to fuss and fight, dear
For the rest of my natural life
Stop treatin' me like your enemy
Start treatin' me like a wife

I'm a lover not a fighter
I kinda like it that way
If you want a fightin' partner
Go live with Cassius Clay

I'm a lover not a fighter
I kinda like it that way
If you want a fightin' partner
Go live with Cassius Clay

I'm a lover not a fighter
I kinda like it that way...
