When I was young man I worked on my own You had the big chore of makin' a home Now that I'm the keeper of all that was yours I'm head of the family and I'm boss of the chores Living without you is a chore on its own I understand what all you did now that you are gone Sometimes it sprinkles and sometimes it pours When you're head of the family and you're boss of the chores When I lost you darling, the kids lost a mom Now it's me and the children and there's work to be done
I looked out for the babies and I scrub all the floors 'Cause I'm head of the family and I'm boss of the chores Living without you is a chore on its own I understand what all you did now that you are gone Sometimes it sprinkles, sometimes it pours When you're head of the family and you're boss of the chores Hey, sometimes it sprinkles and sometimes it pours When you're head of the family and you're boss of the chores
