G A Johnny is a man G A And he's bigger than you G A But his overheads are high G And he looks straight through you A When you ask him how the kids are He'll get home around seven 'Cause the Chevy’s real old And he could have had a Cadillac If the school had taught him right Chorus: G A And he could have married Anne with the blue silk blouse G A He could have married Anne with the blue silk blouse G A And the food is on the table G A But the food is cold A# C A# C Don't hit her G A Can't you even cook? G A What's the good of me working when you can't damn cook?
