She's a great little housewife
- She's a great little housewife
- Though sometimes she talks like a fool
- But she helps at the store in the holiday rush
- And she picks up the kids after school
- And she puts down the phone
- When her husband comes home
- And she changes from mother to wife
- 'Til she feels the words hanging between them
- And she hangs by her words to her life
- She says I swear I love my husband
- I love my kids
- I wanted to be like my mother
- But if I hadn't done it as soon as I did
- Oh there might have been time to be me
- For myself for myself
- There's so many things that she wishes
- She don't even know what she's missin'
- And that's how she knows that she missed
- She's a sweetheart except when she's moody
- It's hard to get through to her then
- Depressed for a while
- When the youngest was born
- Oh but that happens now and again
- She might take a drink with the housework
- Or when Michael's kept late at the shop
- A Martini or two before dinner
- But she always knows when to stop
- She says I swear I love my husband
- And I love my kids
- You know I wanted to be like my mother
- But if I hadn't done it as soon as I did
- Oh there might have been time to be me
- For myself for myself
- There's so many things that she wishes
- She don't even know what she's missin'
- And that's how she knows that she missed
- Oh they used to hold hands at the movies
- Now it's seldom if ever they go
- Once you've paid for the sitter
- And parkin' the car
- There's no money left for the show
- She was doing the dishes
- When a glass fell and broke on the tile
- And she cut her wrist quite by mistake
- It was real touch and go for a while
- She says oh god I love my husband
- And I love my kids
- You know I wanted to be like my my mother
- But if I hadn't done it as soon as I did
- Oh there might have been time to be me
- For myself for myself
- There's so many things that she wishes
- She don't even know what she's missin'
- And that's how she knows that she missed
