Tuff Guy
Copyright 1999 Wayne Severson

When his work day is done and he comes home to you
He'll want you in the kitchen where you do what you do
Make no mistakes while you're fixin' his plate
Don't ever sass him and never be late
Bring him the paper, mix him a drink
Wash all his clothes but don't let them shrink
Tell the children to stop the noise
Or dad will have to come and take all their toys

He's a real tough guy (tough guy tough guy)
He's a tough guy around women and kids
He's a real tough guy (tough guy tough guy)
He's a tough guy around women and kids

If he told you once girl he told you twice
If he tells you again it won't be nice
You do what he says he'll show you how
You do it his way and you do it now
He's not afraid to put you in your place
When he loses his cool you'd better cover you face
If you try to leave him or if you tell
He promised you girl your life will be hell

He's a real tough guy (tough guy tough guy)
He's a tough guy around women and kids
He's a real tough guy (thinks he's a tough guy)
He's a tough guy around women and kids

Why does he do it the neighbors cried (What did they see)
When you get down to it is he scared inside (Can it be)
And why wont she leave him when he acts so strange (The sirens scream)
What makes her believe him when he says he'll change (It's just a dream)

If he's been out drinkin' it's twice as bad
He can't hold back if something makes him mad
The kids are cryin' they've skipped their meals
They're hidin' in the closet cause they know how it feels
The dog is barkin' he senses it too
Doors are slammin' she say's they're through
A well placed backhand keeps her in line
She promises to always treat him fine

He's a real tough guy (tough guy tough guy)
He's a tough guy around women and kids
He's a real tough guy (thinks he's a tough guy)
He's a tough guy around women and kids
He's a real tough guy (tough guy tough guy)
He's a tough guy around women and kids
He's a real tough guy (wanna be tough guy)
He's a tough guy around women and kids

Come on I haven't hit you in over a month now!
