You're The Reason Our Kids Are Ugly - Single Version

Lyrics

You're the reason I'm ridin' 'round on recapped tyres
 An' you're the reason I'm hangin' our clothes outside on walls
 An' you're the reason our kids are ugly, little darling
 Ah, but looks ain't everything
 And money ain't everything
 But, I love you just the same
 You're the reason I changed to beer from soda pop
 An' you're the reason I never get to go to the beauty shop
 You're the reason our kids are ugly, little darling
 Oh, but looks ain't everything
 And money ain't everything
 But, I love you just the same
 I guess that we won't ever have, everything we need
 'Cause when we get ahead, it's got another mouth to feed
 And that's the reason my good looks and my figure's gone
 And that's the reason I ain't got no hair to comb
 An' you're the reason our kids are ugly, little darling
 Ah but looks ain't everything
 And money ain't everything
 But, I love you just the same
 Conway, why in the devil don't you gon'
 And shave an' put on a clean pair of pants?
 Loretta, look at yourself
 I wish you'd take them curlers out of your hair, 'an-
 An' go put on a little bit of makeup, 'an-
 An' get out of the housecoat before supper
 Ha, well let me tell you somethin', Conway
 Considerin' everything I went through today
 I look like a movie star
 Hell, yeah, Ruth Cassidy
 Thank you
 Besides that
 All of our kids took after your part of our family anyway
 Oh, they did, huh? What about the one's that's bald?
 Well, I guess you might say they took after me
