What a strange world we live in, what a shame, oh what a shame
Someone's always quarrellin', then marriage don't remain
Divorces by the thousands, is this human race insane?
I always thought that marriage, should be a sacred thing
Married by the bible, divorced by the law
Every day there's more and more, the worst I ever saw
Things have changed, they're not the same, as the days of ma and pa
They were married by the bible, no divorces by the law
Steps are often taken, without thinking twice
And oft' times there's a child or two, who's left to pay the price
Those little hearts so innocent, they don't know who's to blame
No mom and dad to love them, what a shame, oh what a shame
Married by the bible divorced by the law
Every day there's more and more, the worst I ever saw
Things have changed, they're not the same, as the days of ma and pa
They were married by the bible and no divorces by the law
Married by the bible, divorced by the law
Every day there's more and more, the worst I ever saw
Things have changed, they're not the same, as the days of ma and pa
They were married by the bible, no divorces by the law
