Don't Blame It On Your Wife - Ricky Nelson

She works so hard all day long

In the fields on the hottest days

She’d never complain

And she wonders sometimes if it ever pays

She’s an okay farmer, she’s a good wife

And she’s yours for your life

Don’t put her down, she’ll be there 'til you’re dead

Buy her a tractor instead

Buy her a tractor instead

She forces a smile in the morning

To help you get out of your bed

She’s always there first

And she slaves in the kitchen to see that you’re fed

She’s an okay farmer, she’s a good wife

And she’s yours for your life

Don’t put her down, she’ll be there 'til you’re dead

Take her to town instead

Buy her a nightgown instead

I see that you’re unamused

When you find out they’re dressing

For dinner at night

Don’t blame it on your wife

I see that you look confused

When you find out your life

Is different than mine

Don’t blame it on your wife

Don’t put her down, she’ll be there 'til you’re dead

Take her to town instead

Buy her a nightgown instead

Buy her a tractor instead
