"She'll Never Be Your Wife" lyrics
"She'll Never Be Your Wife"
Stepped on my love just like it was dirt
And upon my heart you put hurt after hurt
Had my mind chained and bound with knots I couldn't untie
And left me with tear-filled eyes to cry, cry and cry
Now you want me to sign some papers
And sympathize with another woman's life
Tell her I said that she can have you
If ever she wants you, but she'll never, never be your wife
Now you're talking about what's best for you and me
Who are you to say?
You never cared about what I thought or what I did
From day to day
But now you think that I should care about
Another woman's life
Tell her I said that she can have you
Whenever she wants you, but she'll never, no, never be your wife
You've made such a fool of me
That to your friends, ha, I'm one big joke
And now you and this woman
Are trying to blow my future up in smoke
Well, after all the years you made me suffer
I'm gonna hold on to you for dear life
Tell her that I said I'm not signing any papers
And I don't want you, and I know how much money you make
So you better bring it on home and take care of these kids
And she'll never, never be your wife
Never, never, never be your wife
Never, never, never, never be your wife
Never, never, never be your wife
I'm not turning you loose without your woman
