Classic Country Lyrics: "Husbands And Wives" von Roger Miller

Roger Miller war einer der grössten Country-Stars
der 1960er, dessen Karriere leider viel zu schnell vor-
bei war. Im Jahr 1965 waren fast alle seine Aufnah-
men in den Charts vertreten, sein grösster Hit war
"King Of The Road". Doch auch seine anderen Songs
gehören heute zu den Klassikern und werden gerne
mal gecovert, auch wenn niemand an Millers oft ei-
genwillige Performance herankam. "Husbands And
Wives" schaffte es noch in den 90ern durch die Ver-
sion von Brooks & Dunn ganz hoch hinauf.

Two broken hearts lonely looking houses
Where nobody lives
Two people each having so much pride inside
Neither side forgives

The angry words spoken in haste
Such a waste of two lives
It's my belief pride is the cheif cause in the decline
Of the number of husbands and wives

A woman and a man
A man and a woman
Some can and some cant and some cant

Two broken hearts lonely looking houses
Where nobody lives
Two people each having so much pride inside
Neither side forgives

The angry words spoken in haste
Such a waste of two lives
It's my belief pride is the cheif cause in the decline
Of the number of husbands and wives

It's my belief pride is the cheif cause in the decline
Of the number of husbands and wives
