Pants

Lyrics

On the day before my wedding Just a few short years ago My dad sat down and told me, "Son There's some things you've got to know I'm gonna tell you a little story All about my wedding night If you'll handle things the way I did Everything'll turn out right "Now, your Mom and I went to our suite And when the luggage boy had gone I handed her my pants And I said, "Honey, try these on!" And she tried, but said, "I can't wear these" I said, "You've got that right! I wear the pants and don't forget What you've just learned tonight" So, I took my dad's advice And did just like hе said to do But then my wife gave mе her pants And said, "Now you try, too!" I said, "I can't get into these!" She said, "You've got that right!" And you never will get in my pants 'Til you learn to treat me right!" Now my mind's not lightnin' fast But all at once I had a hunch That in this partic'lar area Dad might be out to lunch So, I told my wife, "I've been set up I was blind but now I see And if nobody wears the pants That'll be just fine with me!" Well, Dad's got an apartment now I guess Mom had enough After all those years of knucklin' down She finally called his bluff But as for us, we're really happy, though 'Cause we don't play those games I love my wife and she loves me 'Cause we both love the same I love my wife and she loves me And we both love the same
