(Hank Williams)

Well, you can't live with 'em, you can't live without 'em
Yes, there's something mighty necessary 'bout 'em
A woman will give you the blues, she'll have you pullin'
Out your hair and wearin' out your walkin' shoes.

Well, they just keep naggin' until your head is saggin'
There ain't a wink a-sleepin' when they start in weepin'
A woman will give you the blues she'll have you bitein' off
You naild, aand wearin' out your walkin' shoes/

It's a losin' gamble when you start to ramble
Oh Lord, how you miss 'em and you long to kiss 'em
'Cause a woman will give you the blues, she'll have you
Tossin' in your sleep and wearin' out your walkin' shoes.

Well, you can't live with 'em, you can't live without 'em
It's better to talk with 'em than to talk about 'em
A woman will give you the blues, she'll have you talkin' to
Yourself and wearing out your walkin' shoes...
