Nataly Dawn - Why Did You Marry lyrics

Why did you marry? Oh why did you marry? You could have been an actress You could have been a doctor You could have been somebody people wish they knew Why did you marry? Oh why did you marry? Did no one ever tell you To fly to the moon To not get tied down too soon To shop around Oh all the places youd go All the folks youd meet Theyd say, Honey, youve still got it! But no, that was twenty-some-odd years ago Today youre just getting by Youre just getting by Why did you marry? Oh why did you marry? Did somebody convince you Through sermons and psalms That you could be happy Just tagging along Oh all the places youd go All the folks youd meet Theyd say, Honey, thank god you didnt end up like all of the other girls on your street Theyre just getting by Theyre just getting by But I think that I know Yes I know why you married Its just like in the movies The novels and plays Where no one ever says, Thanks Cary Grant, but I think Ill just get my own place Oh all the places youd go All the folks youd meet Theyd say, Honey, youve still got it and guess what, weve all got it too So pull up a seat Were just getting by Were just getting by
