Lyrics
Don't I Let You Live Here?
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Don't complain
Cause you do all the work,
Wash all the dishes,
Clean up all the dirt,
Raise all the children,
Wash their neck and ears.
Don't I let you live here,
Baby?
I let you live here,
And sleep by my side,
I even married you,
And took you for my bride,
Be a little grateful,
Show a little pride!
Don't I let you live here,
Baby?
Don't complain
That I just sit around,
While you make a living
Wherever it can be found.
Don't I even kiss you
And let you share my beer?
Don't I let you live here,
Baby?
