[Verse 1]
D A
I once met a country gentleman's wife
Bm F#m D Bm
who told me of ev'rything she owned.
D A
Show showed me her diamond bracelets
Bm E7 A7
and talked about her stately home.
G A D Bm
And all thru the conversation
G Em A7
her hand was on my knee,
Bm G D E7
but oh no country gentleman's wife
G A D
is gonna get possession of me.
[Verse 2]
D A
She told me her country gentleman
Bm F#m D Bm
was hardly ever at home
D A
and if I would like to call on her
Bm E7 A7
she'd make sure we were alone.
G A D Bm
And if I liked we could have supper
G Em A7
with sparkling champagne,
Bm G D E7
but oh no country gentleman's wife
G A D
is gonna get me for game.
[Verse 3]
D A
She told me her country gentleman
Bm F#m D Bm
was sixty five years old,
D A
and as she was only thirty one
Bm E7 A7
her bed at night was cold.
G A D Bm
And if I would like to warm it up
G Em A7
she'd shower me with gratitude,
Bm G D E7
but oh no country gentleman's wife
G A D
is gonna get me in the nude.
[Verse 4]
D A
I said I was a man with principles
Bm F#m D Bm
and respected the marriage vows,
D A
but if she really wanted to
Bm E7 A7
she might persuade me somehow
G A D Bm
for one square meal of every day
G Em A7
an unlimited supply of booze,
Bm G D E7
and any old country gentleman's wife
G A D
can do anything they choose,
Bm G D E7
and any old country gentleman's wife
G A D
can do anything they choose,
