Your Man Loves You Honey

(Tom T. Hall)



Had my golf club's on my shoulder

When you saw me first today

Wearin' my old army sweater

That you thought you threw away.



And when you saw me standin' there

You shook your head and sighed

When you saw I'd bought a sixpack

I thought you were gonna cry.



Your man loves you honey

And I don't know what else to say

Your man loves you honey

But you can't change my ways.



Now before you say you're angry

You remember what I did

Went to church with you last Sunday

Took your mama and the kids.



Sat right up and heard the preachin'

Even wore my Christmas tie

I'm not much on organ music

5-strings banjo's more my style.



Your man loves you honey

And I don't know what else to say

Your man loves you honey

But you can't change my ways.



Oh, you should have had a knight in armor

And a castle fair

Not some restless cowboy

Faded jeans and shaggy hair.



I can't make it babe, without you

And you know that it's true

Keep me around for laughs

So I've been good for one or two.



Your man loves you honey

And I don't know what else to say

Your man loves you honey

But you can't change my ways...
