when a girl becomes a wife - tammy wynette lyrics
you asked me if i’d marry you
and i believe i can
though i’m just a young girl
they say you’re a decent man.
i’ve been raised by mom and daddy
with a lot of love around
and that’s something i can’t live without
when i move in to town.
you must give me everything
i had when i was home
the things i was accoustomed to
some treasures of my own.
all the things that daddy give me
have become a way of life
it’s not too much to ask
when a girl becomes a wife.
i’ll need a featherbed to lay on
for my flower bed, a hoe
a churn to make fresh b-tter
and i’ll need a radio.
a gingham dress for sundays
and my legs cannot be bare
a petticoat with ruffles
and some ribbons for my hair.
pretty curtains for my kitchen
iron skillets that i’ll need
a swing out on the front porch
and a bible i can read.
i know you’ll be like daddy
when a baby comes in time
you’ll surely build a cradle
and learn a nursery rhyme.
i’ll try to be like mama
not a woman of the world
and we’ll live in love together
with our little boy or girl.
i’ll need a featherbed to lay on
for my flower bed, a hoe
a churn to make fresh b-tter
and i’ll need a radio.
a gingham dress for sundays
and my legs cannot be bare
a petticoat with ruffles
and some ribbons for my hair.
pretty curtains for my kitchen
iron skillets that i’ll need
a swing out on the front porch
and a bible i can read…
