Cigarettes and whiskey Smoked my brain and damn near drowned I thought that's what it took To have a good time Then she came along and changed me Took her love and rearranged Told me love ain't found in a bottle of wine Let's have a hand for the little lady She's the one that showed me how Let's have a hand for the little lady She's a church maker now Let's have a hand for the little lady She's the one that changed my life Let's have a hand for the little lady The lady I call my wife She changed my thinking Why this little woman even stopped my drinking She's all I ever needed to get by With her loving arms around me I know I could never be the man I used to be Her sweet love is all I need to get high Let's have a hand for the little lady
