A friend of mine once said to me
"Why don't you take a wife
You'll never know true happiness
Till you try married life"
I found a girl and bought the ring
Got married right away
I wouldn't change my place
With any single man today
I'm glad I'm married
My wife is a dream
Mends my clothes and treats me right
Lets me stay out late at night
Don't have to sneak home
Or tell her where I was
She just says, "Good evening, dear"
Yes she does
When I go out with my old pals
To have a Jubilee
I'm always glad to know
There's someone waiting home for me
For when we all get pie-eyed
And feel foolish in the head
I know my wife is waiting
Just to tuck me into bed
I'm glad I'm married
My wife is a dream
When I say, now darling Jane
In the morning I'll explain
When we wake up, dear
I'll tell you where I was
Next morning she forgets to ask
Yes she does
