Why’d You Tie the Knot

Every single morning
I have to wake you up
Point you to the kitchen
Pour some coffee in your cup
Get you off to work
'Cause it's bills we gotta pay
You got one woman to talk
And another on the way

This is what you want
And this is what you got
If you didn't want the strings, baby
Why'd you tie the knot?

Meeting all your buddies
You love your Friday nights
You go 'bout every one of them until the morning light
And I need you on Saturday
You say that you're too tired
If being married was a job
I'd tell you you were fired

Don’t be mad at me when you're sleeping with the dogs
If you didn't want the strings, baby
Why'd you tie the knot?
Oh, why’d you tie the knot?
Why'd you tie the knot?

Every time a pretty little thing walks by
It's like you're trying to reading
Something written on her thigh
You whip just like a hound all staring at her ham
And there used to be a time when I used to give a damn

You think of something different
And really hit the spot
If you didn't want the strings, baby
Why'd you tie the knot?

Why'd you tie the knot?
Why'd you tie the knot?
Oh, why’d you tie the knot?
Why'd you tie the knot?
If you didn't want the strings, baby
Why'd you tie the knot?
