Mental Cruelty
Buck Owens / Larry Davis / Dixie Davis
[ Cowboy Copas & Dottie West ]
Mental cruelty that's what I heard her say mental cruelty to the judge that day
I sat there in silence so she could be free
And listened to her lying words mental cruelty
Your Honor since our marriage my life's not been the same
Why I'm missing out on all the fun and he's the one to blame
There's never any excitement now the way there used to be
And sharing his way of life is mental cruelty
Mental cruelty...
Divorce has been granted for many different things
Even when there's not a reason and when no one can be blamed
With only two little words why she's on her mare anyway
Yes all the woman has to claim is mental cruelty
Mental cruelty...
