Lyrics Cheaper to Keep Her

If you're tied up you'd better stay tied up 'cos it's cheaper to keep her

This is from T services

It's cheaper to keep her

It's cheaper to keep her

When your little girl make you mad, uh

And you get an attitude and pack your bags

Five little children that you're leaving behind

Son, you're gonna pay some alimony or do some time

That's why it's cheaper to keep her

Help me say it, y'all

It's cheaper to keep her

See when you get through staring that judge in the face

You're gonna wanna cuss the whole human race

That's why it's cheaper to keep her

You didn't pay but two dollars to bring the little girl home

Now you're about to pay two thousand to leave her alone

You see another woman out there and you wanna make a change

She ain't gonna want you 'cos you won't have a damn thing

That's why it's cheaper to keep her

Everybody sing along with me

It's cheaper to keep her

By the time you get through looking that judge in the face

You're gonna wanna cuss the whole human race

That's why it's cheaper to keep her

It's cheaper to keep her

I know you think the grass is greener way over on the other side

When that judge give you that dirty look you may as well put your money in momma's pocketbook

That's why it's cheaper to keep her

It costs too much to leave her alone, ha ha, yeah

I know it's cheaper to keep her, yeah 'cos you gonna pay some alimony if you leave home

I tell y'all it's cheaper to keep her

All the fellas know what I'm talking about

Don't you know that it's it's cheaper to stay at home so

I gotta tell you

I'll bring you the message tonight

It's cheaper to keep her cheaper to keep her cheaper to keep her cheaper to keep her

She's gonna cause you too much if you let her go, man

It's cheaper to keep her

You might as well put up with your little arguments and fussing and fighting to go

I'm gonna tell you something tonight

I'm telling you it's cheaper to keep her

Ain't it, man

Ain't it cheaper to keep her

Ha

Yeah

By time you get through looking that judge in the face

You'll be lucky if you have if you have a place to go

It's cheaper to keep her
