Show me the lady that never would roam Away from her fireside at night; And never go roaming out after the boys But would sit by her fireside so bright My wife, she is one of a different kind Often caused me a lot of grief She's oft' from her home And she leaves me alone To rock all our babies to sleep Just the other night while out for a walk I happened to stroll down the street And to my surprise I saw with me eyes My wife with a man of six feet She says, "It's no harm don't raise no alarm
Don't make any fuss on the street." She tickled my chin Told me to go in And rock all our babies to sleep I remember one night when I came back home I came in as quiet as a lamb They must have had comp'ny for when I walked in I heard the back door when it slammed I walked right in and looked all around I never thought that she would cheat Without a doubt she had just gone out And left all our babies asleep
