Artist/Band: Bobby Bare
Lyrics for Song: Alimony
Lyrics for Album: Greatest Hits [RCA Victor] [1981]



(Shel Silverstein)



Alimony, alimony

Work till my fingers are bloody and boney

Me oh my, oh goodness sake

I'm paying for my mistake.



Ali-money, I call it ali-money

You married men may think it's funny

Till one fine day you'll wake and find

You're paying for your mistake.



Every Friday when I get my pay

I put it in an envelope and mail it away

Same old song with a little more blues in it

I'm paying for it while someone else's usin' it.



Alimony, alimony

I thought I bought steak and it was all baloney

Me oh my, oh goodness sake

I'm paying for my mistake.



--- Instrumental ---



Alimony, alimony

I thought I bought steak and it was all baloney

Me oh my, oh goodness sake

I'm paying for my mistake.



Every payday paying for my mistake, yes I am friends...
