Vicki Lawrence - The Other Woman lyrics

[Verse 1:] I'm up early every Monday morning There's some laundry to do I'm emptying out his pockets While the kids go off to school And then I see the letter And my heart just breaks in two It's another woman's writing Saying “Baby, I love you” Well 10 years of being married to him I haven't let myself letdown So I make a quick appointment To do some work at the gym downtown What a shock to finally find out That my nicest dress don't fit So I sit down at my mirror and I get out my makeup kit [Chorus:] The other woman Is in for the fight of her life I've loved him too much And too long to have him taken away Oh, that would be the day I'm going to bury the hurt Gonna get down to work Roll up my sleeves and be what he needs A lover at night Oh, and not just a wife You bet your life I'm gonna keep him [Verse 2:] Well, I read the daily papers And we discuss the latest news And I love him each and every night Just the way that I used to do Well sometimes it just takes giving To get something back again Now there'll never be another woman And a whole new life begins [Chorus:] The other woman is in for the fight of her life I've loved him too much And too long to have him taken away Oh, that would be the day! I'm going to bury the hurt Gonna get down to work Roll up my sleeves and be what he needs A lover at night Oh, and not just a wife You bet your life The other woman Is in for the fight of her life I've loved him too much And too long to have him taken away Oh, that would be the day! I'm going to bury the hurt Gonna get down to work Roll up my sleeves and be what he needs A lover at night Oh, and not just a wife You bet your life
