C# 
Em 
I got married
and settled down,
Fm 
I use a smaller brush
Em 
now to paint the town.
I still drank my whiskey,
I just water it down.
Well, no more showin' up in night court
Fm 
Em 
One day late and two dollars short
I still play the dogs, but just for sport
A married man, a married man
Some women think they
can turn a bum into a saint
Oh, look out, Mama, now, here I come,
you got the same old bum,
with a new coat of paint.
Oh, I'm in love this time,
I swear it's true,
Fm 
I meant both words when I said I do,
Em 
and I liked it when she said it too.
I ain't no sows ear,
I ain't no silk purse,
I spend my days at home
writing idiot verse,
Still my wife knows,
she could have done much worse.
A married man, a married man,
some women think they can turn a
bum into a saint.
Whoa, look out mama now, here I come,
you got the same old bum
with a new coat of paint.
well there's two names
printed on the checks
there's bud in the fridge instead
of backs
and I ain't seen any side effects yeah
I got my reading settled down
I use a smaller brush
now to paint the town
I still drank my whiskey
I just Just water it down, water it down.
