Well I married me a wife, she's been trouble all my life
Run me out in the cold rain and snow
Rain and snow..., Run me out in the cold rain and snow

Well she's coming down the stairs, combing back her yellow hair
And her cheeks were as red as a rose
As a rose..., And her cheeks were as red as a rose

Well she went up to her room, where she sang a fateful tune
Saying I can't get along with you
With you..., Saying I can't get along with you

Well I ain't got no use for your red apple juice
And I ain't gonna be treated this way
This way..., And I ain't gonna be treated this way

I see you sitting in the shade counting every dime I made
And I'm broke and so hungry too
Hungry too..., And I'm broke and so hungry too

Well I married me a wife, she's been trouble all my life
Well I'm going where those chilly winds don't blow
Winds don't blow..., I'm going where those chilly winds don't blow
Oh, run me out in the cold rain and snow
Run me out in the cold rain and snow
Run me out in the cold rain and snow
