Ballad
Appears on:
Well I married me a wife,
Gave me trouble all my life,
Threw me out in the cold rain and snow,
Rain and snow
Rain and snow
Threw me out in the cold rain and snow,
I seen her comin’ on down the stair
Combin’ back her long black hair
And her cheeks were as red as a rose,
As a rose
As a rose
Her cheeks were as red as a rose
Well I ain’t got no use
For no red apple juice,
And I’m not gonna be treated that way
That way
That way
And I’m not gonna be treated that way
I saw her sittin’ in the shade,
Countin’ every damn dime I made
And I’m tired and I’m hungry too
Hungry too
Hungry too
And I’m tired and I’m hungry too
Well I married me a wife,
Gave me trouble all my life,
Threw me out in the cold rain and snow,
Rain and snow
Rain and snow
Threw me out in the cold rain and snow.
