To marry a beautiful woman these days,

A E

Is just like a murder crime

To marry a beautiful woman these days,

Is just like a murder crime

If you lookin' for a real good woman,

A E B7

Boy you just wastin' time

[Verse 2]

First she don't know how to sweeten your coffee,

A E

She can't even make up your bed

She don't know how to sweeten your coffee,

She can't make up your bed

She can't even roast your meat

A E B7

And how she mess up your bread

[Verse 3]

Next she can't bake cornbread,

A E

She can't even boil beef stew

She can't even bake cornbread,

She can't boil beef stew

Man if your woman is beautiful and dumb,

A E B7

That don't mean a thing to you

[Verse 4]

My gal baked me some bread this morning,

A E

The bread refused to rise

My gal baked me some bread this morning,

The bread refused to rise

The crust was tough on the bread,

A E B7

Was as the rubber on a Maxwell tyre

[Verse 5]

Some men crave beautiful women,

A E

But in my life it's not worthwile

Some men crave beautiful women,

But in my life it's not worthwile

After all they're just beautiful,

A E

Ain't got sense of a newborn child
