Eb
My wife is a most
known woman.
She always is finding me out.
She never will hear explanations,
F
Bb
but instantly puts me to rout.
There's no use to try to deceive heard
Eb
Bb
if out with my friends night or day
in the most inconceivable manner
Eb
she tells what I've been right away
she says that I'm mean and inhuman
Ab
Bb
oh my wife is a most known woman.

Eb
She would
have been hung up for witchcraft
if she had lived sooner,
I know.
There's no hiding anything from her.
F
She knows what I do, where I go.
Bb
Eb
and if I come in after mid night
F
Bb
and say I have been to the lodge
Eb
oh she says while she flies in a fury
now don't think to play
such a dodge it's all
Very fine, but won't do, man.
F
Bb
Eb
Oh, my wife is a most knowing woman.

Bb
Eb
Not often I go out to dinner
and come home a little so -so.
I try to creep up through the hallway
F
Eb
as still as a mouse on tiptoe.
Bb
she's sure to be waiting up for me
Eb
Bb
and then comes a nice little scene
what you tell me you're sober you wretch
Eb
Bb
Eb
you now don't think that I am so green
my life wife is quite worn out with you,
man.
D
Bb
Eb
Oh, my wife is a most known

Eb
Bb

woman.
She knows me much better
than I do.
Her eyes are like those
of a lynx.
Though how she discovers my secrets,
F
He's a riddle, wood puzzle, a
Bb
sphinx.
Eb
On fair days when we go out walking,
F
Bb
if ladies look at me askance,
in the most harmless way,
Eb
I assure you, my wife gives me,
Bb
Eb
such a glance and says,
oh, these insults, you rude man.
Ab
Bb
Oh, my wife is a most
Eb
Bb
Eb
Bb
known woman.
Eb
Yup, I must give all of my friends up,
If I would live happy and quiet.
One might as well live neath a tombstone,
F
Bb
As live in confusion and ri ot.
Eb
This life we all know is a short one,
while some tongues are long,
Bb
heaven knows.
Eb
And a miserable life is a hus band's
Bb
who numbers his wife with his foes.
Eb
I'll stay at home now like a true man,
Ab
Bb
Eb
For my wife is a most knowing woman.
