VERSE 1
He rattles his glass, she jumps up fast and pours him a glass of tea
Deep in her heart she believes that's the way it should be
yeah, and I've seen my dad get fightin' mad over one little four-letter word
he'll tell you fast you don't talk like that around her
We may not see it the way they see it we may not do it the way they do it
but she lives here life for him he'd gladly die for her
and even in this modern age it works
Though he's been down in his back he still jumps out of that sack
If the good Lord's willin', there will come a day
When our children will say
{REPEAT CHORUS}
Even in this modern age it works
strings at the 2nd fret, then to 4th (for Dstr) and 3rd (for Bstr) frets to
the 5th fret and that sounds alright.
