My Wife's Home Town
Well, I didn't come here to deal with a doggone thing
I just came here to hear the drummer's cymbal ring
There ain't no way you can put me down.
I just wanna say that hell's my wife's home town
Well, there's reasons for that and reasons for this
I can't think of any just now but I know they exist
I'm sittin' in the sun 'til my skin turns brown
I just wanna say that hell's my wife's home town
Home town, home town
She can make you steal, make you rob
Give you the hives, make you lose your job
Make things bad, she can make things worse
She got stuff more potent than a gypsy curse
One of these days I'll end up on the run
I'm pretty sure she'll make me kill someone
I'm goin' inside, roll the shutters down
I just wanna say that hell's my wife's home town
Well, there's plenty to remember, plenty to forget
I still can remember the day we met
I lost my reasons a long ago
My love for her is all I know
State gone broke, the county's dry
Don't be lookin' at me with that evil eye
Keep on walkin', don't be hangin' around
I'm tellin' you again that hell's my wife's home town
Home town, home town
I just came here to hear the drummer's cymbal ring
There ain't no way you can put me down.
I just wanna say that hell's my wife's home town
Well, there's reasons for that and reasons for this
I can't think of any just now but I know they exist
I'm sittin' in the sun 'til my skin turns brown
I just wanna say that hell's my wife's home town
Home town, home town
She can make you steal, make you rob
Give you the hives, make you lose your job
Make things bad, she can make things worse
She got stuff more potent than a gypsy curse
One of these days I'll end up on the run
I'm pretty sure she'll make me kill someone
I'm goin' inside, roll the shutters down
I just wanna say that hell's my wife's home town
Well, there's plenty to remember, plenty to forget
I still can remember the day we met
I lost my reasons a long ago
My love for her is all I know
State gone broke, the county's dry
Don't be lookin' at me with that evil eye
Keep on walkin', don't be hangin' around
I'm tellin' you again that hell's my wife's home town
Home town, home town
