Intro

He leans back, picks up his fork

Looks nervous down at the pork, he search his pocket

hold my breath as knees hit the ground

he bends down pick up his sock, and this is how it sounds

Would you check out my old shoes

your cooking is way too good, not something to throw away

Would you do me the honor to do the dish

And honey tomorrow, what about fish?

(Lady, you wish)

I said I’d wait for you till the end

But dear I never really knew, what that meant

I never pictured the red Sedan

Housekeeping instead of law, and you going on about

Those big old holes in those damn shoes

And how my cooking is too good, for you to throw away

I keep doing you the honor taking the dish

And honey tomorrow, (do your own fucking fish!)

  (Lady, you wish)

(I can always wish) (m-m)

the same old song the same routine, kid, house and dog

then he hands me a box, said here's the deal:

(Oh)Please marry this old shoe

Your cooking is so darn good, let me have a bite on my last day

Would do me the honor? He asked with a kiss

Honey let it wait, forget that fish

  Lady, you're my wish.

My one final wish.

The single wish I have- -mmmmhm.

I said I'd wait for you till the end

And dear I finally think I know what I meant
