DRIVIN' MY WIFE AWAY
As recorded by Pinkard and Bowden
To tune of: DRIVIN' MY LIFE AWAY/Eddie Rabbitt

Well, I go out drinkin'
Come in late, thinkin'
Tell my wife; Left the car with the keys
Sittin' by the highway
And it got (S-T-O-L-E-N).

Then I tell her to get dressed
High heels, Sunday best
Big surprise, lots of fun
She thinks she's goin' to a party
Then we go (B-O-W-L-I-N');

CHORUS
Oooh, I'm drivin' my wife away
She can't take another day ... of me
Oooh, I'm drivin' my wife away
Didn't want her anyway ... ...
