A fifty years they ve been married

And they can t wait for their fifty first to roll around

Yeah roll around

A thirty years they ve been married

And now they re old and happy and they settle down

Settle down yeah

Twenty years they ve been married

And they did everything that could be done

You know their having fun

And then you come along and talk about

So you say you wanna be married

I m gonna change your mind

Oh got to change

That was the good side baby

Here comes the bad side

Ten years they ve been married

And a thousand kids run around hungry

Cause ther mother s a louse

Daddy s down at the wihiskey house

That ain t all

For thirty years they ve been married

They don t get along so good

They re tired of each other you know how that goes

She got another lover

Huh same old thing

So now you re seventeen

Running around hanging out and a having your fun

Life for you has just begun baby

And then you come saying

So you, you say you wanna get married

Oh baby trying to put me on a chain

Aint that some shame

You must be losing your sweet little mind

I ain t ready yet baby I ain t ready

I m gonna change your mind

Oooh look out baby

Oh

I ain t ready

I ain t ready I ready now

Let me live

Let me live

Let me live a little long
