Papa drove a truck nearly all his life

The part she couldn't handle was the being alone
C B7
I guess she needed more to hold than just a telephone

Papa called mama each & every night
A7
Just to ask her how she was & if us kids were alright

Mama would wait for that call to come in
C B7 E7
But when daddy'd hang up she was gone again

Mama was a looker Lord how she shined

Papa was a good'n but the jealous kind

Papa loved mama, mama loved men

Mama's in the graveyard papa's in the pen
Well it was bound to happen & one night it did

Mama's in the graveyard papa's in the pen
Mama's in the graveyard papa's in the pen
