Why Did I Get Married

come gather all around me, you boys who want a wife.
Come listen to my story, you'll thank me all your life.
For I was once was a bachelor and wish'd I was again.
I wouldn't give up that single ness to ware this ball and chain.

Oh why did I get married, what can the reason be.
If you want to see a missing link, just take a look at me..


Now why did I get married, why did I don that neck yoke.
Why if I talk back, she'll hit a crack and liable to get my neck broke.

Now my wife she keeps the bank account while I keep a right on a working.
I wear old shirt's so long, that it looks like an old lace curtain.
Now why did I get married why did I put on that neck yoke, cause if I talk back she'll hit me a crack and I'm liable to get my neck broke.

Now my wife gets fatter every day, she goes 400 gross.
I haven't kissed her now in years, cause I can't get that close.

Oh why did I get married, look what I've went and done.
Why it costs three times as much for two, to live as cheap as one.
