| Well, I guess it was back in '63 | |
| When eatin' my cookin' got the better of me, | |
| So I asked this little girl I was goin' with to be my wife. | |
| Well, she said she would, so I said âI doâ. | |
| But I'da said I wouldn't if I'da just knew | |
| How sayin' âI doâ was gonna screw up all of my life! | |
| Well, the first few years weren't all that bad â" | |
| I'll never forget the good times we had | |
| Cause I'm reminded every month when I send her the child support. | |
| Well, it wasn't too long till the lust all died, | |
| And I'll admit I wasn't too surprised | |
| The day I come home and found my suitcase sittin' out on the porch. | |
| Well, I tried to get in â" she changed the locks! | |
| Then I found this note taped on the mailbox | |
| That said, âGoodbye, turkey! My attorney will be in touch!â Mm-hmm⦠| |
| So I decided right then and there | |
| I's gonna do what's right â" give her her fair share. | |
| But brother â" I didn't know her share's gon' be THAT much! | |
| She got the gold mine! She got the gold mine! | |
| I got the shaft. I got the shaft. | |
| They split it right down the middle, | |
| And then they give her the better half. | |
| Well, it all sounds sorta funny, | |
| But it hurts too much to laugh. | |
| She got the gold mine - I got the sha-a-aft. | |
| Now, listen â" you ain't heard nothin' yet: | |
| Why, they give her the color television set, | |
| Then they give her the house, the kids, and both of the cars! See? | |
| Well, then they start talkin' âbout child support, | |
| Alimony, and the cost of the court â" | |
| Didn't take me long to figure out how far in the toilet I was! | |
| I'm tellin' ya, they have made a mistake | |
| Cause it adds up to more than this cowboy makes! | |
| Besides; everything I ever had worth takin', they've already took! | |
| While she's livin' like a queen on alimony, | |
| I'm workin' two shifts eatin' baloney, | |
| Askin' myself, âWhy didn't you just learn how to cook?!?!â | |
| They give her the gold mine! She got the gold mine! | |
| They give me the shaft. I got the shaft. | |
| They said they're splittin' it all down the middle, | |
| But she got the better half. | |
| Well, it all sounds mighty funny, | |
| But it hurts too much to laugh. | |
| She got the gold mine - I got the sha-a-aft. | |
| Well, she got the gold mine! She got the gold mine! | |
| I got the shaft. I got the shaft. | |
| They split it all down the middle, | |
| And then they give her the better half. | |
| Well, I guess it all sounds funny, Hoo, hoo, hoo, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! | |
| But it hurts too much to laugh. | |
| She got the gold mine - I got the sha-a-aft. | |
| (They ain't kiddin' me â" I got the shaft.) | |
| Well, I don't have to worry âbout totin' a billfold n'more. | |
| Hahahahaha⦠| |
| I let my wife tote it; I'mon' be carryin' food stamps â" | |
| You get it, judge? I'mon' be⦠Just⦠Hahahaha⦠| |
| Ah, it's not funny, huh? Huh? Huh? | |
| Contempt of court? Whaddaya mean? | |
| Listen, judge: I's just kiddin'! |
