Jenny's Husband

He has no taste for alcohol not even a light beer And she says that he should be named the husband of the year He changes the baby's nappy and cooks the evening tea And she feels very happy to have one good as he. he's never once been on the dole he gives her all his pay And he's the greatest worker at least that's what she say The bank account is in her name and Jenny runs the show And for women's liberation she's struck a mighty blow. She talks of Billy 'two doors down' his conduct a disgrace And if she were married to him she would put him in his place He spends his night down at the pub and comes home after ten She cannot understand how women tolerate such men. But if Billy were her husband she would not have her own way And he'd go to the pub at night and not give her all his pay And their marriage would not last too long for lack of harmony But her George is very different as he bends quite easily. She boast about her husband George he walks the narrow line And he doesn't have any vices which seems to suit her fine And alcohol doesn't pass his lips not even a light beer And she at least has proclaimed him the husband of the year
