- Fearing Wife If I had money to spend I could make some new friends I could find friends who think just like me We would drink every night and we never would fight We'd be happy like people should be If I could just go back home to the folks that I've known They would tell me how proud they all are If I could find what I lack If I could only go back I'd say I'm sorry I rambled so far If a -d Fearing wife should come into my life We would move where the air is still clean We would live off the land until we finish our span It would be like some beautiful dream If I could make a fresh start Off in some other part of the country in which I was raised I would put down new roots and stand tall in my boots And be happy the rest of my days I could be what I'm not I'd rejoice in my lot I'd give thanks every way I know how I'd sing songs of delight If I could just get it right Instead of being the way I am now BRIDGE (x3) Hadn't been so proud things might be different I could find someone who can help me in this jam Well I wrote my letter and I guess I have to mail it Instead of trying to be different than I am Solo: ,,,,,, (x2) Yes, I'd give all that I got to take just one more shot For a chance to be happy at last I would get my mind clear And move on without fear and walk out from the cage of the past If a -d Fearing wife should come into my life We would move where the air is still clean We would live off the land until we finish our span It would be like some beautiful dream
