I could Etell they were nervous, when they Asaw me at the service,
And the Epreacher asked if anyone had anything to B7say.
AWhen they said 'I do', I jumped Eup and said 'thank Ayou',
'Cause my EalimonB7y just stopped toEday.
He's rub a dubbin' in Emy tub, he's sleepin' in Amy bed.
He's watchin' my ETV, he's scratchin' my B7dog's head.
He thinks Ehe's got H-E-R Aright down to a T,
But he's just the Enext ex of B7my old used to Ebe.
[Instrumental]
E  E7  A  A7  E  B7  E
Every Emornin' he gets up, Afires up my old truck,
He Eused to work one job thanks to her now he's got B7two.
I'll even Alet him believe that he Estole her from Ame,
But one Eday I'm gonna B7send him and I.O.EU.
He's rub a dubbin' in Emy tub, he's sleepin' in Amy bed.
He's watchin' my ETV, he's scratchin' my B7dog's head.
He thinks Ehe's got H-E-R Aright down to a T,
But he's just the Enext ex of B7my old used to Ebe.

He thinks Ehe's got H-E-R Aright down to a T,
But he's just the Enext ex of B7my old used to Ebe.
AHe's just the Enext ex of B7my old used to Ebe.
