{c:intro}
[A7]

{c:verse 1}
You're the [A7]reason I'm ridin' around on recapped tires.
And you're the [A7]reason I'm hangin' our clothes outside on wires.

{soc}
You're the [D]reason our kids are ugly, little darlin'.
Ah, but [E]looks ain't ev'rythin', 
And [E]money ain't ev'rythin',
but I [E7]love you just the [A7]same.
{eoc}

{c:verse 2}
You're the [A7]reason I've changed to beer from soda pop.
And you're the [A7]reason I never get to go to the beauty shop.
 
{soc}
You're the [D]reason our kids are ugly, little darlin'.
Ah, but [E]looks ain't ev'rythin', 
And [E]money ain't ev'rythin',
but I [E7]love you just the [A7]same.
{eoc}

{c:bridge}
I [D]guess that we won't ever have [A]everything we need,
‘cause [B7]when we get "ahead", it's got a-[E]nother mouth to [E7]feed.

{c:verse 3}
And that's the [A7]reason that my good looks and my figure is gone.
And that's the reason that I ain't got no hair to comb.
 
{soc}
You're the [D]reason our kids are ugly, little darlin'.
Ah, but [E]looks ain't ev'rythin', 
And [E]money ain't ev'rythin',
but I [E7]love you just the [A7]same.

{c:outro conversation in A7}
Conway, why in the devil don't you go and shave and put on a clean pair of pants?

But Loretta, look at yourself. Now I wish you'd take them curlers out of your hair and go put on a little makeup and get out of that housecoat before supper.

Ha, well, let me tell you something, Conway, considerin' everything that I went through today, I look like a movie star.

Eh-he-yeah, Ruth Buzzie.

Thankyee.

Besides that, all our kids took after your part of the family, anyway.

Oh they did, huh? What about’s the ones that's bald?

Ha ha ha, well, I guess you could say they take after me…
