Barbara Allen Durrum

First off Im not a part of a band anymore, Im retired and I only write lyrics for songs and poems since my husband died in 2001 we were married for 51 yrs and he was the talented one he could play 4 musical instruments and had a wonderful voise and looked good to go with it. We did the Nashville thing when we were young but that kind of life gets old real fast. I gave it up when the children started coming and Bucky gave it up when his health started down hill. All good thing come to an end. During those years we met lots of wonderful people and I have pictures on my web sit Http;//www.DurrumFamilyTradition.zoomshare.com Pictures of all the Famous people we open the show for on Friday night Frolics at WSM.

Lyrics

My wife can`t take a joke anymore/ 
                 Barbara Durrum 
Now me and the boys
We got together last night
We were dealing those cards
And everything was getting just right
WE had waitress in tight fittin jeans
 And you know that`s trouble
 if you know what I mean.
Now I got home about a quarter to four
 Found my wife can`t take a joke anymore.

THe very next friday ,
We were at it again.
 I told myself I said 
Self,this time you better win.
I found a note on my front door
Said , honey you don`t live here anymore
Guess she can`t take a joke anymore

She went to the Lawyers 
 the very next day 
 Said let me tell you 
What all this sucker will pay
They called me up , 
said meet me at four
I guess my wife can`t 
take a joke anymore.

Well the moral of this story
If you know what I mean.
Don`t run around with woman
 In tight fitting jeans
You might get home 
 Find a note on your door
THE JOKES ON YOU CAUSE YOU 
DON`T LIVE HERE ANY MORE
Guess my wife can`t take a joke anymore.
