He rattles his glass, she jumps up fast and pours him a glass of tea
A5 A5 D5 G5
Deep in her heart she believes that's the way it should be

VERSE 2:
Though he's been down in his back he still jumps out of that sack
ev'ry mornin' at 5a.m. Having her home with the kids has been worth it to him
yeah and she takes pride in bein' his wife and making their house a home
and sometimes she wishes the world would just leave them alone
[REPEAT CHORUS]
