You're the reason I'm a-ridin' around on recapped tires
And you're the reason I'm hangin' our clothes outside on wires
And you're the reason our kids are ugly, little darlin'
Ah, but looks ain't ev'rythin'
and money ain't ev'rythin'
But I love you just the same
You're the reason I've changed to beer from soda pop
And you're the reason I never get to go to the beauty shop
You're the reason our kids are ugly, little darlin'
Ah, but looks ain't ev'rythin'
and money ain't ev'rythin'
But I love you just the same
I guess that we can't ever have
Everything we need
Cause when we get "ahead"
It's got another mouth to feed
You're the reason I can't get played on mtv
You would still be in The Pipettes whithout me
You're the reason our kids are ugly, little darlin'
Ah, but looks ain't ev'rythin'
and money ain't ev'rythin'
But I love you just the same
