| Nat, you look like a man with a story, I sure have
 | 
| I told my wife we oughta save money
 | 
| That’s the way it’s gotta be, oh gotta, gotta be that way
 | 
| She cancelled all her charge accounts, gave all the gold to me
 | 
| Well, I can’t see what you did wrong
 | 
| Why was your woman so upset?
 | 
| Well, I put the money on a horse
 | 
| And he hasn’t showed up yet

| Well, Dean, what’s your problem? | 
| Here it is
 | 
| I gave my wife a beautiful fur coat, you did?
 | 
| Told her it was genuine mink, rich man
 | 
| I took her out to show it off
 | 
| Then we stopped in for a drink, oh cocktails
 | 
| Well, I know your wife was really thrilled
 | 
| How come you two had a spat?
 | 
| Oh, it’s easy, you see
 | 
| It started to rain, the coat got wet
 | 
| And mink just don’t smell like that

 | 
| What?
 | 
| There’s just one way to handle a woman
 | 
| Dean, we just got to treat 'em rough
 | 
| We gotta slap 'em, that’s right
 | 
| We gotta show 'em who wears the pants
 | 
| Cut out that sissy, sissy stuff
 | 
| Now it ain’t no use to take abuse
 | 
| Whenever they are cranky or cross
 | 
| Let’s put the women in their place
 | 
| And we’ll show them who’s the boss
