Housewife

Tried to make a housewife of a hoe

Tried but you know how this story goes

There’s a reason for the adage

But I love a challenge - oh I

Tried to make a housewife of a hoe

Tried to make lady of a tramp

Now I’m licked and sent without a stamp

The lady was a broad

So I can’t call it fraud

I tried to make a housewife of a hoe

I Tried making lovin to a whore

Yes I believed it could be something more

Fools in love are desperate

And I’m no fool, except that

I tried to make a housewife of a hoe.

Tried to make a promise to a pro

Tho I paid the price I loved the show

If you were only acting

I’m crying and I’m clapping - oh I

Tried to make a housewife of a hoe
