lirik lagu jerry reed – she got the goldmine
well, i guess it was back in â? 63
when eatinâ? my cookinâ? got the better of me,
so i asked this little girl i was goinâ? with to be my wife.
well, she said she would, so i said â? i doâ?.
but iâ? da said i wouldnâ? t if iâ? da just knew
how sayinâ? â? i doâ? was gonna screw up all of my life!
well, the first few years werenâ? t all that bad â?
iâ? ll never forget the good times we had
cause iâ? m reminded every month when i send her the child support.
well, it wasnâ? t too long till the l-st all died,
and iâ? ll admit i wasnâ? t too surprised
the day i come home and found my suitcase sittinâ? out on the porch.
well, i tried to get in â? she changed the locks!
then i found this note taped on the mailbox
that said, â? goodbye, turkey! my attorney will be in touch!â? mm-hmmâ?¦
so i decided right then and there
iâ? s gonna do whatâ? s right â? give her her fair share.
but brother â? i didnâ? t know her shareâ? s gonâ? be that much!
she got the gold mine! she got the gold mine!
i got the shaft. i got the shaft.
they split it right down the middle,
and then they give her the better half.
well, it all sounds sorta funny,
but it hurts too much to laugh.
she got the gold mine – i got the sha-a-aft.
now, listen â? you ainâ? t heard nothinâ? yet:
why, they give her the color television set,
then they give her the house, the kids, and both of the cars! see?
well, then they start talkinâ? â? bout child support,
alimony, and the cost of the court â?
didnâ? t take me long to figure out how far in the toilet i was!
iâ? m tellinâ? ya, they have made a mistake
cause it adds up to more than this cowboy makes!
besides; everything i ever had worth takinâ?, theyâ? ve already took!
while sheâ? s livinâ? like a queen on alimony,
iâ? m workinâ? two shifts eatinâ? baloney,
askinâ? myself, â? why didnâ? t you just learn how to cook?!?!â?
they give her the gold mine! she got the gold mine!
they give me the shaft. i got the shaft.
they said theyâ? re splittinâ? it all down the middle,
but she got the better half.
well, it all sounds mighty funny,
but it hurts too much to laugh.
she got the gold mine – i got the sha-a-aft.
well, she got the gold mine! she got the gold mine!
i got the shaft. i got the shaft.
they split it all down the middle,
and then they give her the better half.
well, i guess it all sounds funny, hoo, hoo, hoo, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
but it hurts too much to laugh.
she got the gold mine – i got the sha-a-aft.
(they ainâ? t kiddinâ? me â? i got the shaft.)
well, i donâ? t have to worry â? bout totinâ? a billfold nâ? more.
hahahahahaâ?¦
i let my wife tote it; iâ? monâ? be carryinâ? food stamps â?
you get it, judge? iâ? monâ? beâ?¦ justâ?¦ hahahahaâ?¦
ah, itâ? s not funny, huh? huh? huh?
contempt of court? whaddaya mean?
listen, judge: iâ? s just kiddinâ?!
