My Wife Lyrics - John Entwistle

(J. Entwistle) 

Track Music, Inc. 

My life's in jeopardy 

Murdered in cold blood is what I'm gonna be 

I ain't been home since Friday night 

And now my wife is coming after me 

Give me police protection 

Gonna buy a gun so 

I can look after number one 

Give me a bodyguard 

A back belt Judo expert with a machine gun 

Gonna buy a tank and an airplane 

When she catches up with me 

Won't be no time to explain 

She thinks I've been with another woman 

And that's enough to send her half insane 

Gonna buy a fast car 

Put on my lead boots 

And take a long, long drive 

I may end up spending all my money 

But I'll still be alive 

All I did was have a bit too much to drink 

And I picked the wrong precinct 

Got picked up by the law 

And now I ain't got time to think 

Gonna buy a tank and an aeroplane 

When she catches up with me 

Won't be no time to explain 

She thinks I've been with another woman 

And that's enough to send her half insane 

Gonna buy a fast car 

Put on my lead boots 

And take a long, long drive 

I may end up spending all my money 

But I'll still be alive 

And I'm oh so tired of running 

Gonna lay down on the floor 

I gotta rest some time so 

I can get to run some more 

She's comin'! 

She's comin'!
