We met each other,
introduced by her brother,
a cat I'd known all my life.
Partying and dancing,
moonlight and romancing,
soon to be husband and wife.
My friends call me crazy,
her folks call her lazy,
but our love counts for life.
If we stuck together
the pressures we would weather,
not knowing we were in for a fall.
Women and drinking, loving and thinking,
they do it to you everytime,
women and drinking, loving and thinking,

Find yourself going down down down down,
I'm going down down,
I'm going down down down down down down.
Ow - I just wanna testify,
what the women don't owe to me.
I just wanna testify,
what the women don't owe to me.
We had a boy, my pride and joy,
I took a job day and night.
Tired and wired, one day I got fired,
that's when we started to fight.
With time on his hands, a man ain't a man,
and all he loves he starts to neglect.
I didn't go far, straight to the bar,
and drank up all my self respect.

Yeah - let me get on back to my story now
Yeah - cared about no one,
but my wife and my son,
that's when I started to roam.
Bar room to bedroom,
it happened so soon,
I found myself on my own.
She went back to her mother,
I fought with her brother - yeah,
and in my heart I know I was wrong.
Please pay attention to the words that I mention - yeah,
and listen to the moral of the song.
