This is about many guys that I know of that are married, have a girlfriend on the side, have an ex that they pay child support/alimony to, and STILL are working on a new one. The bottom line is that it leaves you B-R-O-K-E!

Well the wife, the ex-wife, and that crosstown woman
Well you know you're in trouble when you see that fiery look in their eyes
Talkin' 'bout the wife, the ex-wife, and that crosstown woman
Spendin' all your money just to keep 'em all satisfied

One won't stay off the phone, one won't leave me alone, one's always waitin' for me when I get home

So baby take it slow
There's three more that won't let go

That's the wife, the ex-wife, and that crosstown woman
That's how it's gonna be everyday for the rest of your life

Talkin' 'bout the wife, the ex-wife, and that crosstown woman
Get paid on Friday be broke by Saturday night.

One that's loving and kind
The other make me lose my mind
One that's sickin' the law on me everytime I get behind

You can hang out for the show
But later bring along some dough

Get paid on Friday be broke by Saturday night

When I was footloose and fancy free
I used to be loaded - It slipped away from me

Well the wife, the ex-wife, and that crosstown woman
Well they all got needs that you know you just can't deny
Talkin' 'bout the wife, the ex-wife, and that crosstown woman
Spendin' all your money just to keep 'em all satisfied

One wants you to make up the bed, the other kicks you in the head
All three sees that your bank account stays permanently in the red

So baby take it slow
There's three more that won't let go

That's the wife, the ex-wife, and that crosstown woman
Get paid on Friday be broke by Saturday night
