MY HEART WON’T WANDER VERY FAR FROM YOU
Well honey don’t you worry I don’t need no barroom queens.
Well I admit she sure knows how to fill a pair of jeans.
And I’ll admit now darling she sure is showing me her stuff,
But honey it ain’t nearly enough.
Chorus:
‘Cause I ain’t never seen her patch a pair of ragged britches,
Stretch a paycheck till it reaches, scratch my back right where it itches.
And I ain’t never seen that and honey till I do
My heart won’t wander very far from you.
Now honey you know I honor all the hard times we’ve been through.
I never could’ve made it with anyone but you.
And I think I know when a lady is really really tough,
But she don’t show me nearly enough.
Chorus:
‘Cause I ain’t never seen her stay up all night with a baby,
Calm me down when I get crazy, fix me grits and red-hot gravy.
I ain’t never seen that and honey till I do
My heart won’t wander very far from you.
No I ain’t never seen her make a six- room house a castle,
Teach the young one how to wrestle, straighten out my fishing tackle.
And I ain’t never seen that and honey till I do my heart won’t wander very far from you.
