(Brad Paisley and Chely Wright) You wouldn't believe the number of times I've heard somebody say How come some guy, some handsome prince, hasn't swept you away But I take off on that tour bus, a different city every night And doing what I love to do makes it hard to be a wife You wouldn't believe the number of times I've been asked that myself Folks can't understand why a heart like mine is still on the shelf But I'm married to my music and I have been most my life That makes it hard to be a husband It makes it hard to be a wife Cause I'd rather play the Grand Ole Opry Than go out to dinner and a movie Right now I'm not thinkin' bout a family of my own Cause the band's on stage and I'm late for my show There's folks who think my life is lacking Cause my time at home is usually spent packing You might assume that I don't' have a clue what love's about Oh, but I know love Of that I have no doubt Cause you wouldn't believe the way it feels to hear somebody say Your song sure means a lot to me It got me through a real tough day And if hearing words like that means giving up my social life Then I've got all the friends I need on that front row And I've got all the friends I need on that back row And we can't see those folks unless we're never home And that makes it hard to be a wife And hard to be a husband And hard to be a wife
