Lyrics

Be my husband and I'll be your wife
Be my husband and I'll be your wife
Be my husband and I'll be your wife man
Outside you there is no place to go

If you want me to I'll cook and sew
If you want me to I'll cook and sew
If you want me to I'll cook and sew
Outside you there is no place to go

ooh daddy now now love me good
ooh daddy now now love me good
ooh daddy now now love me good

please don't treat me so doggone mean
please don't treat me so doggone mean
please don't treat me so doggone mean
you're the meanest man I've ever seen

ooh daddy now now love me good
ooh daddy now now love me good
ooh daddy now now love me good

stick to the promise man, that you made me
stick to the promise man, that you made me
stick to the promise man, that you made me
That you'll stay away from Rosalie

ooh daddy now now love me good
ooh daddy now now love me good
ooh daddy now now love me good
