My Woman, My Woman, My Wife (Album Version)

作词 : Marty Robbins

作曲 : Marty Robbins

Hands that are strong but wrinkled

Doing work that never gets done

Hair, that's lost some of the beauty

By too many hours in the sun

Eyes, that show some disappointment

And there's been quite a lot in her life

She's the foundation

I lean onMy woman, my woman, my wife

Everyday has been uphill

Oh, we climb but we can't reach the top

I'm weak and

I'm easily discouraged

She just smiles when

I want to stop

Lips, that are weary but tender

With love, that strengthens my life

A saint, in a dress made of gingham

My woman, my woman, my wife

Two little babies were born in the spring

But died when the winter was new

I lost control of my mind and my soul

But my woman's faith carried us through

When she reaches that river

Lord, you know what she's worth

Give her that mansion up yonder'

Cause she's been through hell here on earth

Lord, give her my share of

HeavenIf I've earned any here in this life'

Cause God,

I believe she deserves it

My woman, my woman, my wife
