The Wedding Cake - Jeannie C. Riley[00:00:00]

Don't be troubled about me cause I'm tired[00:00:12]

From workin' around the house[00:00:15]

When day is done[00:00:18]

Don't think you failed me cause you can't afford[00:00:23]

That dishwasher to make my life more fun[00:00:27]

You know the measure of a man is[00:00:35]

Much more than just the money he can make[00:00:38]

And every woman knows a lot of joy and tears[00:00:46]

Come with the wedding cake[00:00:51]

The wedding cake is not all icing[00:00:58]

And love and tender whispers in the dark[00:01:01]

One slice is concern for all your dreams[00:01:10]

Prayed they won't come true and break your heart[00:01:13]

Another slice is feedin' kids and wipin' noses[00:01:21]

Cryin' when the doorbell rings and there are roses[00:01:26]

Every woman knows a lot of give and take[00:01:32]

Comes with the wedding cake[00:01:37]

It's facin' shadows of the future[00:01:49]

Prayin' they will fall away as we walk toward them[00:01:52]

Searchin' for the sun[00:01:57]

It's long and anxious hours with the wolf at the door[00:02:04]

Hugs and kisses when at last we see the dawn[00:02:09]

So when the hands of time trace tellin' lines upon our face[00:02:18]

And lace our hair with strands of gray[00:02:23]

We laugh and say for all who will partake[00:02:29]

It all comes with the wedding cake[00:02:33]

Yes for all who will partake[00:02:41]

It all comes with the wedding cake[00:02:45]
