My girl says that she will never leave me
and true and honest, she held to her word
she waited until I was fast asleep and
held a pillow to my breath and watched me squirm
(chorus)
and now she's got an awful lot of money
now she's got everything that she needs
and now she's got a real sweet new honey
who swears to her that he will never leave
he waited long enough to duck suspicion
he stayed with her as long as he could stand
and tried to make her slip over the railing
look as if it was just an accident
(chorus)
and now he's got an awful lot of money
now he's got everything that he needs
and now he's got a real sweet new honey
who swears to him that she will never leave
she always asked to come when he was hunting
but he never wanted her to come along
until finally one day he let her join him
and all the boys from the ol' country club
but those boys sure do like a bit of drinking
and those boys all do know each others wives
so who's to ever guess what really happened
on the night he took a bullet to the eye
(chorus ad nauseam)
