You're the reason I'm riding around on recapped tires
You're the reason I'm hanging clothes outside on wires
You're the reason our kids are ugly, little darlin'
But looks ain't everything
And money ain't everything
But I love you just the same

You're the reason I've changed from 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'
But looks ain't everything
And money ain't everything
But I love you just the same

I guess that we won't ever have everything we need
'Cause when we get ahead, it's just another mouth to feed

You're the reason my good looks and my figure is gone
And that's the reason I got no hair to comb
And you're the reason our kids are ugly, little darlin'
But looks ain't everything
And money ain't everything
But I love you just the same

And that's the reason my good looks and my figure is gone
That's the reason that I got no hair to comb
And you're the reason our kids are ugly, little darlin'
But looks ain't everything
And money ain't everything
But I love you just the same
