Alimony Songtext
von Bobby Bare

Alimony, alimony, work ′til my fingers are bloody and boney
Me, oh my, oh goodness sake, I'm paying for my mistake
Alimony, I call it alimony, you married men may think it′s funny
'Til one fine day you'll wake and find you′re paying for your mistake


Every Friday when I get my pay
I put it in an envelope and mail it away
Same old song with a little more blues in it
I′m paying for it while someone else's usin′ it

Alimony, alimony, I thought I bought steak and it was all baloney
Me, oh my, oh goodness sake, I'm paying for my mistake

Alimony, alimony, I thought I bought steak and it was all baloney
Me, oh my, oh goodness sake, I′m paying for my mistake

Every payday, paying for my mistake
Yes, I am, friends
