Roger Miller
Husbands and Wives
[Verse]
Two broken hearts
Lonely lookin' like
Houses where nobody lives
And two people each
Having so much pride inside
Neither side forgives

[Chorus]
The angry words spoken in haste
Such a waste of two lives
You know it's my belief pride is the chief cause of the decline
Of the number of husbands and wives

[Bridge]
A woman and a man, a man and a woman
Some can and some can't, and some can't

[Verse]
Two broken hearts
Lonely lookin' like
Houses whеre nobody lives, mm-mm
Then thеre's two people each
Having so much pride inside
Neither side forgives
[Chorus]
Angry words spoken in haste
Such a waste of two lives
Oh, it's my belief pride is the chief cause of the decline
Of the number of husbands and wives

[Outro]
Oh, husbands and wives
Husbands and wives
