lyrics

Don't try to reason with diamonds
It ain't any use
This woman will pile up debt
Until it reaches the roof
She wants money for dresses
She wants money for shoes
She'd shop a rich man blind
Until he's singing the blues
And if it weren't for her lowdown ways
I could take the high road

Is there a stench in the air?
What's with the turned up nose?
I wonder at these black tie affairs
If my blue collar shows?
She wants to eat fancy dinners
Hang out with kings and queens
She wants to buy furniture
To store her expensive things
And if it weren't for her lowdown ways
I could take the high road

I call up the repair man
He laughs like I told a joke
He said ain't nothing can be done
For a man that's so broke
I try to get up to leave
But I'm buried under stuff
You can give her what she wants
But you can't give her enough
And if it weren't for her lowdown ways
I could take the high road
If it weren't for her lowdown ways
I could take the high road
