No Car No Wife No Money

I have no car, I have no wife, Guess that's the story of my life Got married in my early twenties Had no car, Had no money I fell in love with this girl named Honey Got a part-time job mowing grass Finally had a little chance Bought a new TV, Black n white Always in bed early, tossed and turned every night My Honey went to work at a local store Wasnt a Walmart, Not one in sight But that soon changed overnight Bought a used Pinto , Thought i was class A little bitty car didn't use much gas Bought a little kitten, Then a pup Then the Pinto and I ran outta luck Got hit in the rear the damn car blew up Really put me in a rut Had some burns a few minor cuts Think my Honey was gonna go nuts Honey its ok im all right "Well, how do I get to work tonight? " At the store where she worked, she ended up in a fight Went to jail 4 days 3 nights Then when I thought I couldn't take any more She ran off with the guy next door There I was no car, no life no money No little girl I called Honey Turned on the radio what do I hear? Willie n Waylon crying in beer Think that's bad, They should be here Had no glass, much less a beer Had to get a job close to my tent, Had no money to pay no rent Found a job 2 miles away Pumpin gas, So little pay Met a girl I liked a lot 2 months later we tied the knot Sure wasnt gonna call her Honey She made my life bright, called her Sunny Then 2 months later, it sure wasn't funny She worked in a bank, Stole a lot of money Put in prison, 10 to 20 Not gonna mention the other 3 wives I'm just lucky to survive It all comes down to this None of them do I miss But all in all, Lifes ok I'm still alive in the USA Still No Car, Still No Money But that's ok, Life is funny Don't need No car, No Wife, No Money
