MY BABY AND MY WIFE 
RECORDED BY ERNEST TUBB 

[1] When twilight shadows are fallin' 
 and [4] my day's work is [1] done 
'Tis then I wend my way back to my [5] home 
And the [1] light I find there shining 
 like a [4] guiding star to [1] me 
To show me the [5] right road from the [1] wrong 

It's [5] there a girl is waiting 
 with a [1] baby On her [6-7] knee 
And to [2-7] see them it just fills my heart with [5] joy 
Be-[1]-cause I truly love them 
 they [4] mean the world to [1] me 
It's my wife and my [5] precious baby [1] boy 

And when our meal is over 
 we're sitting by the fire 
And the baby crawls around there on the floor 
My thoughts then turn to heaven 
 and I thank the lord above 
For the blessings he has let come in our door 

I know I'm not deserving 
 the blessings he has sent 
I try and try and yet i go astray 
But I will keep on praying for the lord 
 to help me be 
The man i want my boy to be someday 

The time just rolls right on around 
 the clock is striking nine 
And the baby is a-yawning now and then 
My wife she gently picks him up 
 and starts to rockin' him 
I can feel a tuggin' at my heart within 

His head up on her shoulders 
 her neck his arms entwine 
His eyelids are heavy as can be 
Then he gives up the struggle 
 and snuggles close to her 
It's a sight that's worth more 
 than this world to me 

Then when he is in dreamland 
 she tucks him in his bed 
And side by side we two kneel down and and pray 
We ask the lord in heaven 
 to watch our darling boy 
And to help him walk 
 the straight an' narrow way 

At times this world seems dweary 
 and hardships come my way 
As I struggle on thru this life 
But my cares all just vanish 
 when I reach that little home 
To be greeted by 
 my baby and my wife
