Johnny is a man
And he's bigger than you
But his overheads are high
And he looks straight through 
when you ask him 
how the kids are


He'll get home around seven
'Cause the chevy's real old
And he could have had a cadillac
If the school had 
taught him right
And he could have married Anne 
with the blue silk blouse
He could have married Anne 
with the blue silk blouse


And the food is on the table
But the food is cold
(Don't hit her)


"Can't you even cook?
What's the good of me working 
when you can't damn cook?"


Well Johnny is a man
And he's bigger than her
I guess the bruises won't show
If she wears long sleeves
But the space in her eyes 
shows through


And he could have married Anne 
with the blue silk blouse


He could have married Anne
 with the blue silk blouse


Shows through
Shows through
Shows through
