[Intro] A [Verse 1]
A
You walk in, half past nine

A
Lookin' like a queen

A
Serving me with papers

E            A
Calling me obscene
[Chorus 1]
A
Woman, I've tried so hard

A             F#m
Just to do my best

              A
They're gonna put me in the poor house

    E                   A   | F#m | A | F#m E | A |
And you'll take all the rest
[Verse 2]
A
Up all day, down all night

A
Working on the job

A
Everything I do is wrong

  E             A
I always end up robbed
[Chorus 2]
A
Woman, I've try so hard

A              F#m
Done all I can do

              A
They're gonna put me in the poor house

          E                A   | F#m | A | F#m E | A |
And leave all the rest for you
[Verse 3]
A
If I drove a pulpwood truck

A
Would you love me more?

A
Would you bring me diamonds

A
And hang around my door?
[Chorus 3]
A
Woman, I've done my best

A                           F#m
They're ain't much left for me

              A
They're gonna put me in the poor house

    E              A    | F#m | A | F#m E | A | % |
