I’ll Take The Blame - Jean Shepard

[00:00.15]Well we just left the courthouse this morning
[00:08.1]And the judge said we could go our seperate ways
[00:12.42]And everything we own must be divided just like the separation papers say
[00:18.96]You can keep the curtains and the tables and the chairs
[00:23.61]And all those dirty dishes in the sink
[00:26.01]Well you can take that golf club and the television set
[00:30.24]And that lawnmower that's always on the blink
[00:34.62]You can keep all the records and the hi fi set
[00:39.99]You can take that phoney fireplace and the log
[00:43.26]Now you keep the car you keep the boat and
[00:46.29]I'll take the dog
[00:47.73]No I'll take the dog oh no
[00:53.22]I'm gonna take the dog
[00:54.75]Well who's gonna bring me my paper who's gonna keep me company
[01:01.41]You'll just have to give him up no
[01:03.21]I ain't a partin' with the pupp
[01:05.25]The dog belongs to me
[01:15.99]Now hold on
[01:17.37]Ray you ain't gonna take this dog away from me
[01:19.95]I'm the one that feeds him every day
[01:23.58]And who always takes care of him when he's sick
[01:27.63]Now wait just a minute
[01:30.75]Jeannie I guess that you forget
[01:31.74]Who it was that always took him to the bed
[01:34.05]Paid for all of them shots of seven bucks a lick
[01:35.82]You can just forget about him
[01:38.79]I ain't leaving you without him
[01:41.07]Then you'll just have to stay
[01:42.0]I guess that's the only way okay
[01:46.71]I'll give back the curtains and the tables and the chairs
[01:48.509995]And I'll wash the dirty dishes in the sink
[01:53.64]And I won't take the golf clubs and the television set
[01:56.58]And I'll fix that mower that's always on the blink
[02:02.91]We'll both listen to the records on the hi fi set
[02:05.13]By the fireplace with this gas burnin' log
[02:06.21]We'll go ridin' in our car and we'll go sailin' in our boat
[02:09.78]And we'll both take the dog yes we'll both take the dog
