A House, a Car, and a Wedding Ring - Dale Hawkins

Got a house and a car

And a wedding ring

But I don’t know what

I’ll do without a wife

I want a girl who’s pretty

Kind of warm and sweet

To bring a little love

Into my life

There comes a time

When a fellow knows

He oughta settle down

Gotta find the girl

To call his own and

Stop all this roving round

Yeah, got a chair and a Table and a four post bed

And a garden where the

Air smells sweet

But I need a girl to Share my everything

And make my lonely

Life complete

I saved my money

Got a steady job

Built a dream house

Just for two

I bought a sports coupe

Just the other day

And a golden wedding ring too

But the time grows short

And the nights grow long

And it’s mighty peculiar life

With a house and a car

And a wedding ring

But I don’t know what

I’ll do without a wife
