Robert Baitinger, a songwriter from Germany
For songwriters who dont sing or perform it is extremely hard to make ones mark in the music business because they dont have a platform to present and promote their work. This is more or less the situation that I, Robert Baitinger, a songwriter from Germany, have been confronted with since I started writing songs in 1978.
My idea is to complement my songwriting capabilities with the "helping hands" of excellent artists, musicians and innovative producers. In the age of the internet it has become easier to communicate and collaborate with musicians and producers all over the world. I am utilizing the internet and pursuing the idea of a conceptual studio band with a frequently changing lineup of artists. I call this project the "Rob B. Project" since I supply the melodies and/or lyrics of a song and other musicians/producers/songwriters contribute their talents and skills to make it come to life.
Story behind the song
Sometimes you need to listen to a song that simply puts a smile on your face. This is that kind of song. It may sound cheesy but between the lines there's a bit of truth. Enjoy "Happy Wife Happy Life".
Lyrics
HAPPY WIFE HAPPY LIFE
[Verse]
When I get home from work, she's singing a song
I walk through the door and start humming along
She says: "How was your day? Was it tough or sweet?"
I smile and say: "With you, it's now complete."
[Pre-Chorus]
When she's happy, it's like the sun's shining bright
When she's laughing, everything feels right
[Chorus]
Happy wife, happy life, it's a simple truth
Treat her like a treasure, and you'll never lose
A little kindness, a little grace
You'll find your joy in her embrace
Happy wife, happy life, that's the way it goes
When she's happy, I'm happy too, and it shows
Happy wife, happy life
[Verse]
Took her out dancing, to her favorite place
She looked so pretty with that smile on her face
Bought her flowers, just because
She said: "It's the little things that mean the most, love."
[Pre-Chorus]
When she's happy, it's like the sun's shining bright
When she's laughing, everything feels right
[Chorus]
Happy wife, happy life, it's a simple truth
Treat her like a treasure, and you'll never lose
A little kindness, a little grace
You'll find your joy in her embrace
Happy wife, happy life, that's the way it goes
When she's happy, I'm happy too, and it shows
Happy wife, happy life
[Bridge]
I know it sounds cheesy, but it's what I've found
Make her feel special, and she'll stick around
It's not the big things, it's the little acts of love
You keep her happy, and it's sent from above
[Chorus]
Happy wife, happy life, it's a simple truth
Treat her like a treasure, and you'll never lose
A little kindness, a little grace
You'll find your joy in her embrace
Happy wife, happy life, that's the way it goes
When she's happy, I'm happy too, and it shows
Happy wife, happy life
[Outro]
Happy wife, happy life, it's my guiding light
As long as she's happy, everything's alright
Happy wife, happy life
