To marry a beautiful woman these days,
Is just like a murder crime
To marry a beautiful woman these days,
Is just like a murder crime
If you lookin' for a real good woman,
Boy you just wastin' time
First she don't know how to sweeten your coffee,
She can't even make up your bed
She don't know how to sweeten your coffee,
She can't make up your bed
She can't even roast your meat
And how she mess up your bread
Next she can't bake cornbread,
She can't even boil beef stew
She can't even bake cornbread,
She can't boil beef stew
Man if your woman is beautiful and dumb,
That don't mean a thing to you
My gal baked me some bread this morning,
The bread refused to rise
My gal baked me some bread this morning,
The bread refused to rise
The crust was tough on the bread,
Was as the rubber on a Maxwell tyre
Some men crave beautiful women,
But in my life it's not worthwile
Some men crave beautiful women,
But in my life it's not worthwile
After all they're just beautiful,
Ain't got sense of a newborn child
