Be My Husband

Be my husband man I be your wife

Be my husband man I be your wife

Be my husband man I be your wife

Loving all of you the rest of your life

If you promise me you'll be my man

If you promise me you'll be my man

If you promise me you'll be my man

I will love you the best I can

Stick to the promises man you made me

Stick to the promises you made me

That you stay away from Rosalie

Oh daddy, say love me good

Oh daddy now love me good

Oh daddy now love me good

Oh daddy now love me good

If you want me to cook and sew

Outside of you there is no place to go

Please don't treat me so doggone mean

Please don't treat me so doggone mean

Please don't treat me so doggone mean yeah, yeah, yeah

You're the meanest man I ever see

Oh daddy, say love me good

Oh daddy now love me good

Oh daddy now love me good

Oh daddy now love me good
