"WIFE MATERIAL" lyrics

22 and already settling down
Short fuse, snapping just at the sound of your voice
Like I don't got a choice
Turn it up, the game's on Saturday night
So stuck, my friends say I got a type
And it's true
Never thought it'd be you

I didn't know what I wanted
Least I knew it was different, least I knew what I didn't
I fell in love and forgot it
Every plan I was making, please forgive me for saying

If you want wife material
All white ethereal dress
Wish you the best but I can't help you
If you want
Life straight as it's sold
A type of girl to hold
Forever just to set her on the shelf
Then you should find somebody else

25 and roots down in the south
That white fence ain't crumbling down anytime soon
You got your dreams, too

Maybe I ain't cut out for the test of time
But I won't be tied down to a future that ain't mine
I'll love you for tonight

But if you want wife material
All white ethereal dress
Wish you the best but I can't help you
If you want
Life straight as it's sold
A type of girl to hold
Forever just to set her on the shelf
Then you should find somebody else

Somebody else who can love you
Someone else you can trust to
Say 'til death do us part
And she won't break your heart
And she'll know where she's going
Won't think twice when she's holding you
The way that I used to

If you want wife material
All white ethereal dress
Wish you the best but I can't help you
If you want
Life straight as it's sold
A type of girl to hold
Forever just to set her on the shelf
Then you should find somebody else
