[1] I married me a [^b7] wife she gave me [1] trouble all my life
Left me out in the [^b7] cold rain and [1] snow
Rain and snow [^b7] oh [1] oh oh lord
Left me out in the [^b7] cold rain and [1] snow

She came down the stairs combing back her long yellow hair
And her cheeks were as red as a rose
as a rose oh lord
And her cheeks were as red as a rose

I've done all I can do to try to get along with you
And I ain't gonna be treated this-a-way
This-a-way oh lord
And I ain't gonna be treated this-a-way

She came into the room where she met her final doom
And I ain't gonna be treated this-a-way
This-a-way oh lord
And I ain't gonna be treated this-a-way

I married me a wife she gave me trouble all my life
Left me out in the cold rain and snow
Rain and snow oh lord
Left me out in the cold rain and snow
