Johnnie Taylor - Cheaper To Keep Her lyrics
rate meIf you`re tied up<br />
You`d better stay tied up<br />
Cause it`s cheaper to keep her<br />
This is from T services<br />
<br />
It`s cheaper to keep her<br />
It`s cheaper to keep her<br />
<br />
When your little<br />
Girl make you mad<br />
And you get an attitude<br />
And pack your bags<br />
<br />
Five little children<br />
That you`re leaving behind<br />
Son, you`re gonna pay some<br />
Alimony or do some time<br />
<br />
That`s why<br />
It`s cheaper to keep her<br />
Help me say it, y`all<br />
It`s cheaper to keep her<br />
(It`s cheaper to keep her)<br />
<br />
See, when you get through<br />
Staring that judge in the face<br />
You`re gonna wanna cuss<br />
The whole human race<br />
<br />
That`s why<br />
It`s cheaper to keep her<br />
(It`s cheaper to keep her)<br />
(It`s cheaper to keep her)<br />
(It`s cheaper, it`s cheaper)<br />
(It`s cheaper, it`s cheaper)<br />
(It`s cheaper to keep her)<br />
<br />
You didn`t pay but two dollars<br />
To bring the little girl home<br />
Now you`re about to pay<br />
Two thousand to leave her alone<br />
<br />
You see another woman out there<br />
And you wanna make a change<br />
She aint gonna want you cause<br />
You won`t have a damn thing<br />
<br />
That`s why it`s cheaper to keep her<br />
<br />
Everybody sing along with me<br />
It`s cheaper to keep her<br />
(It`s cheaper to keep her)<br />
<br />
By the time you get through<br />
Looking that judge in the face<br />
You`re gonna wanna cuss<br />
The whole human race<br />
<br />
That`s why<br />
It`s cheaper to keep her<br />
(It`s cheaper to keep her)<br />
Its cheaper to keep her<br />
(It`s cheaper to keep her)<br />
(It`s cheaper, it`s cheaper)<br />
(It`s cheaper, it`s cheaper)<br />
(It`s cheaper to keep her)<br />
<br />
I know you think<br />
The grass is greener<br />
Way over on the other side<br />
When that Judge give<br />
You that dirty look<br />
You may as well put your<br />
Money in momma`s pocketbook<br />
<br />
That`s why it`s cheaper to keep her<br />
(It`s cheaper to keep her)<br />
Cost too much to leave her alone, yeah<br />
I know it`s cheaper to keep her, yeah<br />
(It`s cheaper to keep her)<br />
<br />
Cause you gonna pay some<br />
Alimony if you leave home<br />
I tell y`all<br />
It`s cheaper to keep her<br />
All the fellas know<br />
What I`m talking bout<br />
<br />
Don`t you know<br />
It`s cheaper to stay at home<br />
I gotta tell you<br />
I`ll bring you the message tonight<br />
<br />
It`s cheaper to keep her<br />
Cheaper to keep her<br />
Cheaper to keep her<br />
Cheaper to keep her<br />
<br />
She`s gonna cause you too much<br />
If you let her go, man<br />
It`s cheaper to keep her<br />
<br />
You might as well put up<br />
With your little arguments<br />
And fussing and fighting<br />
I am gonna tell you something tonight<br />
I`ll tell you, cheaper to keep her<br />
<br />
Ain`t it, man<br />
Ain`t it cheaper to<br />
Keep her, ha yeah<br />

By time you get through<br />
Looking that judge in the face<br />
You`ll be lucky if you<br />
Even have a place</
