Intro

Verse 1

 He rattles his glass, she jumps up fast and pours him a glass of tea

Deep in her heart she believes that's the way it should be

 yeah, and I've seen my dad get fightin' mad over one little four-letter word

he'll tell you fast you don't talk like that around her

Chorus

We may not see it the way they see it we may not do it the way they do it

 but she lives here life for him he'd gladly die for her

 and even in this modern age it works

Verse 2

Though he's been down in his back he still jumps out of that sack

ev'ry mornin' at 5a.m. Having her home with the kids has been worth it to him

yeah and she takes pride in bein' his wife and making their house a home

and sometimes she wishes the world would just leave them alone

[REPEAT CHORUS]

Bridge

  If the good Lord's willin', there will come a day

  When our children will say

[REPEAT CHORUS]

  Even in this modern age it works
