Yessir My New Flutist

tending to your affairs
I seem to keep up airs
or so would  say
is it really that way
is it really that way
she said
i undermine your achievements
complicate your agreements
i make it so you'll never
succeed
she told me
she looks forward
to my 
tomorrow's
she wish to fill them with sorrow

made it so
it's hard for me to achieve
whats a fella to believe
lucky to be in love
or am I just a fool

when you came along i was
out of my head
I had lost my way
didn't speak much
because I didn't have much to say
my smile didn't happen that often
aint got no one meddling
seems the dust id settling
and the days ahead are
sunny, that's true
aint got no lying woman
undermining what I'm doing
Baby I thank the lord
I found you
