The Woman With You

She hit the door, 6:55,



Sack full of groceries,



Splittin' down the side.



Canned goods scattered all the way to the curb,



Look on her face, sayin': "Don't say a word."



So it's me and her, and a can of beans,



Sittin' there on the front porch swing.



Western sky all turnin' red,



Head on my shoulder, she sighed and said,









"I've been gopherin', chauffeurin', company chairman,



Coffee maker, copy repairman.



Anymore, there ain't nothin', I swear man, that I don't do.



I've been jugglin', strugglin', closin' big deals,



Dancin' backwards in high heels.



Just when it feels, like I can't make it through,



She said, "It sure is nice, to just be the woman with you."









She said, "The girl I was, with a business degree,



Probably wouldn't recognize me.



I was gonna run the bank.



I was gonna run the map.



Now all I wanna run, is a bubble bath.



Back then, you know, I had this plan,



Before all of this reality set in.



Here come life, boy, ready or not,



Hey I wanted it all,



And that's what I got.









'Cause I'm gopherin', chauffeurin', company chairman,



Coffee maker, copy repairman.



Anymore, there ain't nothin', I swear man, that I don't do.



I've been jugglin', strugglin', closin' big deals,



Dancin' backwards in high heels.



Just when it feels, like I can't make it through,



She said, "It sure is nice, to just be the woman with you."
