It Works

He rattles his glass, she jumps up fast And pours him a glass of tea Deep in her heart she believes That's the way it should be And I've seen my dad get fighting mad Over one little four letter word He'll tell you fast, you don't talk like that Around her We may not see it the way they see it We may not do it the way they do it But she lives her life for him and he'd gladly die for her And even in this modern age, it works Though he's down in his back, he still jumps out of that sack Every morning at 5:00 a.m. But having her home with the kids Has been worth it to him And she takes pride in being his wife And making their house a home Sometimes she wishes the world would just Leave them alone We may not see it the way they see it We may not do it the way they do it But she lives her life for him and he'd gladly die for her And even in this modern age, it works If the good lord's willing There will come a day When our children will say We may not see it the way they see it We may not do it the way they do it But she lives her life for him and he'd gladly die for her And even in this modern age, it works And even in this modern age, it works
