A Country Gentleman’s Wife

I once met a country gentleman's wife who told me of everything she owned
He showed me her diamond bracelets and talked about her stately home
And all through the conversation, her hand was on my knee
But oh no country gentleman's wife is gonna get possession of me

She told me her country gentleman was hardly ever at home
And if I would like to call on her, she'd make sure we were alone
And if I liked we could have supper with sparkling champagne
But oh no country gentleman's wife is gonna get me for game

She told me her country gentleman was sixty five years old
And as she was only thirty one, her bed at night was cold
And if I would like to warm it up, she'd shower me with gratitude
But oh no country gentleman's wife is gonna get me in the nude

I said I was a man with principles and respected the marriage vows
But if she really wanted to, she might persuade me somehow
For one square meal of every day, an unlimited supply of booze
And any old country gentleman's wife can do anything they choose
Any old country gentleman's wife can do anything they choose
