I wish I was your friend and not your wife
You`re with your friends each night while home alone my teardrops fall
You`re having such a good time you don`t take time to call
I seldom see you anymore it`s such a lonely life
I wish I was your friend and not your wife
I wish I was your friend how happy I could be
To have you call me every night and want to be with me
You`d always take me with you I could share your other life
I wish I was your friend and not your wife
[ steel - guitar ]
The children hardly know you they just see you now and then
They call you Mr Daddy when you come walkin` in
To think you`d rather be with friends cuts us like a knife
I wish I was your friend and not your wife I wish I was your friend and not your wife
