I Wish I Was Your Friend Lyrics

(Harlan Howard)

I wish I was your friend
And not your wife.

You're with your friends each night
While home alone my teardrops fall
You're having such a good time
You don't take time to call.

I seldom see you anymore
It's such a lonely life
I wish I was your friend
And not your wife.

I wish I was your friend
How happy I could be
To have you call me every night
And want to be with me.

You'd always take me with you
I could share your other life
I wish I was your friend
And not your wife.

--- Instrumental ---

The children hardly know you
They just see you now and then
They call you Mr. Daddy
When you come walltzin' in.

To think you'd rather be with friends
Cuts us like a knife
I wish I was your friend
And not your wife.

I wish I was your friend
And not your wife...
