Lori McKenna - Three kids no husband

She’s got three kids and no husband ^C She’s two weeks late on last month’s ^Grent ^GShe’s waiting on child support, he keeps swearing that it’s coming But if ^Cshe knows him, she knows where it ^Gwent And those ^Dbills ain’t gonna ^Cpay thems^Gelves

^GIt’s been a forty hour week and it’s only Tuesday And there’s ^Chomework and dinner to ^Gmake ^GAnd somebody wants a lullaby, somebody wants a different channel Some^Cbody’s dealing with their first heart^Gbreak Those ^Ddishes in the sink ain’t gonna ^Cwash them^Gselves

She ^Clights a cigarette out on the ^Gbalcony When she ^Emgets a couple minutes to herse^Clf There’s how you plan it out and how it turns ^Gout to be And a ^Embroken home ain’t no fairy^Gtale

^GShe’s got three kids and no husband And a ^Chairnet job at a diner down on ^GMain ^GShe knows damn well she don’t make the best cup of coffee But she’s ^Cquick with a smile and she's good at ^Gnames But those ^Dlunch tickets ain’t ^Cgonna tip them^Gselves

She ^Csmokes a cigarette out by the ^Gloading dock And tries ^Emnot to pick the polish off her ^Cnails She’s thinking about a guy who’s been coming ^Gin a lot She ^Emstarts to dream and then she stops her^Gself

^GShe’s got three kids and no husband She’s a ^Cmom and a dad and a taxi driver When the ^Gbaby’s sick she’s an up-all-nighter A hand and a shoulder and a ^Greferee ^GA real life hero, if you ask me And those ^Dkids ain’t gonna ^Craise them^Gselves
