Work In Progress
Okay I forgot about the trash
I didn't trim the long hairs on my mustache
I didn't buy you a ring I believe it was back in '93
Alright I admit it I forgot our anniversary
I didn't pick the baby this morning at the nursery
That ain't no big thing it's a gold star for me
You get tired and disgusted with me
But I can't be just what you want me to be
I still love you and I try real hard
I swear one day you'll have a brand new car
I even asked the Lord to try to help me
He looked down from Heaven said to tell you please
Just be patient, I'm a work in progress ...
I'm sorry I got mad for waiting in the truck
It seemed like hours you getting all dressed up
Just to go to Shoney's on a Wednesday night
I read that book you gave me about Mars and Venus
I think it's sinking in but probably need to re-read it
But I'm starting to see now what you've been saying is right
You get tired and disgusted with me
But I can't be just what you want me to be
I still love you and I try real hard
I swear one day you'll have a brand new car
I even asked the Lord to try to help me
He looked down from Heaven said to tell you please
Just be patient, I'm a work in progress ...
I know you meant well when you bought me those cloggs
But my heels getting hot down by the muffler on my hog
I'm sure they're stylish but I'll take my boots
And I tried to do that health thing like you want me to do
But that low-fat and no-fat is getting hard to chew
Now I love your cooking honey but sometimes I need some real food
You get tired and disgusted with me
But I can't be just what you want me to be
I still love you and I try real hard
I swear one day you'll have a brand new car
I even asked the Lord to try to help me
He looked down from Heaven said to tell you please
Just be patient, I'm a work in progress
Oh honey just be patient now
I'm a work in progress
I didn't trim the long hairs on my mustache
I didn't buy you a ring I believe it was back in '93
Alright I admit it I forgot our anniversary
I didn't pick the baby this morning at the nursery
That ain't no big thing it's a gold star for me
You get tired and disgusted with me
But I can't be just what you want me to be
I still love you and I try real hard
I swear one day you'll have a brand new car
I even asked the Lord to try to help me
He looked down from Heaven said to tell you please
Just be patient, I'm a work in progress ...
I'm sorry I got mad for waiting in the truck

Oh honey just be patient now
I'm a work in progress
