National Defense Blues Lyrics

Yeah, defence

I had a little woman working on that natural defence
I had a little woman working on that natural defence
That woman got to the place, act like she did not have no sense

Just because she was working, making so much dough
Just because she was working, making so much dough
That woman got to the place, Fred, she did not love me no more

Every payday come, her check was big as mine
Every payday come, her check was big as mine
That woman thought that defence was gonna last all the time

Now the defence is gone, listen to my song
The defence is gone, listen to my song
Since that defence been gone, that woman done lose her home
Yes she is, yeah

I will tell you the truth, and it′s got to be the fact
I will tell you the truth, and it's got to be the fact
That that defence been gone, that woman lose her Cadillac

I′m gonna tell you people, tell you as a friend
I'm gonna tell you people, tell you as a friend
I don't believe that defence will ever be back again
