Songtexte My Wife (Live At The Gaumont State Theatre) - The Who

My life's
In jeopardy
Murdered in cold blood is what I'm gonna be
I haven't been home since Friday night and now my wife
Is comin' after me

Give me police protection
Gonna buy a gun so I can look after number one
Give me a bodyguard --
A blackbelt judo expert

With a machine gun!
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 spendin' all my money

But I'll still be alive!
All I did was have a bit too much to drink
And 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 spendin' 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

Yeah!
She's comin'!
She's comin'!
She's comin'!
She's comin'!
She's comin'!
She's comin'!
She's comin'!
She's comin'!
She's comin'!
She's comin'!
