You were young You were bright You were a star in the night You were gorgeous How it turned me on As you danced on our lawn In your wedding dress
And one day Out of the blue You said, "baby, we're through I don't love you" You said, "I found someone new Who does all of those things You can't do"
Well, you left With your things In his car you went far But I found you I burst through the door As you were playing his whore Oh, how could you?
And I held up my knife I screamed, "you stole my wife Now you'll pay" You cried as I slashed him And I yelled, "shut up and hear what I say" This is what I said
I said, "you are my wife And I am your husband God brought us together But I'm fixing to take you apart I'll pack you with sawdust And dress you up in pretty things Without you as my wife I've no reason for life But I've still got my heart I've got my heart I've got my heart"
I tied him to a chair 'Cause life just ain't fair What can you do? You broke my heart So I'll tear him apart And soon I'll kill you too
Unless you repent of your sin And come back home to your husband Who you belong I'm going to tear out your eyes And your insides As I sing my song This is what I'll sing
I'll sing, "you are my wife And I am your husband God brought us together But I'm fixing to take you apart I'll pack you with sawdust And dress you up in pretty things Without you as my wife I've no reason for life But I've still got my heart I've got my heart I've got my heart"
You are my wife And I am your husband God brought us together But I'm fixing to take you apart I'll pack you with sawdust And dress you up in pretty things
Without you as my wife I've no reason for life But I've still got my heart I've got my heart I've got my heart
I've got my heart I've got my heart I've got my heart
