Song lyrics

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, yeah.

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, yeah.

Stick the promise, man, you made me,
Stick the promise, man, that you made me.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Stick the promise, man, you made me,
That you stay away from Rosalie, yeah.

Oh, daddy, love me good,
Oh, daddy, now love me good.
Oh, daddy, love me good,
Oh, daddy, now love me good.

If you want me to cook and sew,
If you want me to cook and sew,
If you want me to cook and sew, yeah.

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 now doggone mean, yeah.

You're the meanest man I ever see.

Oh, daddy, love me good,
Oh, daddy, now love me good.
Oh, daddy, love me good,
Oh, daddy, now love me good.
