 C                         F                C
Now don't laugh at the condition the lady's in
  G                                    C
She soon could wear a cocktail dress again
                          F                C
But we get along without cocktails mighty fine
           G                                      C
This will be our first and I'm proud the baby is mine

Chorus:
 C     F                               C
Yes I married her although I knew the kind of life she used to live
F                                C           G
And cause I knew she loved me too it was easy to forgive
G       C                        F                C
And if you'd just mind your own business we'd be fine
G                                       C
Don't ever doubt I'm proud the baby is mine

She's awkward yeah but have you seen her face?
Where there once was shame there's a sparkle in its place
And her conscience is clear that's why her eyes shine
Mister don't ever doubt I'm proud the baby is mine

Chorus:
I married her although I knew the kind of life she used to live
And cause I knew she loved me too it was easy to forgive
If you'd mind your own business we'd make it fine
Tell all her old friends I'm proud the baby is mine
