Hard to be a Husband/Hard to be a Wife ( — текст песни (Brad Paisley)

You wouldn`t believe the number of times I`ve heard somebody say
How come some guy, some handsome prince, hasn`t swept you away
But I take off on that tour bus, a different city every night
And doing what I love to do makes it hard to be a wife

You wouldn`t believe the number of times I`ve been asked that myself
Folks can`t understand why a heart like mine is still on the shelf
But I`m married to my music and I have been most my life
That makes it hard to be a husband
It makes it hard to be a wife
Cause I`d rather play the Grand Ole Opry
Than go out to dinner and a movie
Right now I`m not thinkin` bout a family of my own
Cause the band`s on stage and I`m late for my show

There`s folks who think my life is lacking
Cause my time at home is usually spent packing
You might assume that I don`t` have a clue what love`s about
Oh, but I know love
Of that I have no doubt
Cause you wouldn`t believe the way it feels to hear somebody say
Your song sure means a lot to me
It got me through a real tough day
And if hearing words like that means giving up my social life
Then I`ve got all the friends I need on that front row
And I`ve got all the friends I need on that back row
And we can`t see those folks unless we`re never home
And that makes it hard to be a wife
And hard to be a husband
And hard to be a wife
