Alimony Lyrics

(Shel Silverstein)

Alimony, alimony
Work till my fingers are bloody and boney
Me oh my, oh goodness sake
I'm paying for my mistake.

Ali-money, I call it ali-money
You married men may think it's funny
Till 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 itBobby Bare - Alimony - http://motolyrics.com/bobby-bare/alimony-lyrics.html
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.

--- Instrumental ---

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...
