                          "Cheaper To Keep Her"
                               (Mack Rice)
 Intro:
 	C9   Db9  C9    Db9  [2X]
 	/ / / /   / / / /
 
 	(spoken:) You tied up, you better stay tied up, 'cause it's cheaper
         	  to keep her - this is from T, who says:
 
 	      C7
 	It's cheaper to keep her
 	      F7
 	It's cheaper to keep her
 
 Verse 1:
 
 	 C7
 	When your little girl makes you mad
 	 F7
 	And you get an attitude and pack your bags
 	 G7
 	Five little children that you're leavin' behind
 	 F7
 	Son, you're gonna pay some alimony or do some time
 
 Chorus:
 
 	                  C7
 	That's why it's cheaper to keep her (1: help me say it, y'all)
 	      F7                            (2: everybody sing along with me)
 	It's cheaper to keep her (it's cheaper to keep her)
 	     G7
 	[1: When you get through starin']        that judge in the face
 	[2: By the time you get through lookin']
 	        F7
 	You're gonna want to cuss the whole human race
 	                  C7
 	That's why it's cheaper to keep her (it's cheaper to keep her)
 	Eb7
 	   [2: It's cheaper to keep her] (it's cheaper to keep her)
 	        C7
 	(It's cheaper, it's cheaper, it's cheaper, it's cheaper)
 	(It's cheaper to keep her)
 
 Verse 2:
 
 	You didn't pay but two dollars to bring the little girl home
 	Now you're about to pay two thousand to leave her alone
 	You see another woman out there and you want to make a change
 	She ain't gonna want you 'cause you won't have a damn thing
 
 [repeat chorus]
 
 Verse 3:
 
 	I know you think the grass is greener
 	Way over on the other side
 	When that judge gives you that dirty look
 	You may as well put your money in mama's pocketbook
 
 Coda [background voices continue to fade]:
 
 	                  C7
 	That's why it's cheaper to keep her (it's cheaper to keep her)
 	                      Eb7
 	It costs too much to leave her alone, yeah
 	             C7
 	I know it's cheaper to keep her
 	                             Eb7
 	'Cause you're gonna pay some alimony if you leave home
 	                     C7
 	I tell y'all - it's cheaper to keep her - all the fellows I know
 		are talkin' about it
 	      Eb7
 	It's cheaper to keep her, I gotta tell you
 
 	[continue to fade]
