When we got married I took the marriage vows In sickness and in health I said "I do, For richer, for poorer till death us do part", And you said that you'd honour and obey me too But it wasn't very long before I soon found out The one who wore the trousers was you Now after all these years at last I'm pushing you about But in sickness and in health I said "I do". When we was courting you used to say to me "My darling I can't wait until we're wed - I'll iron all your trousers, sew buttons on your shirts, I'll think the world of you", that's what you said. But it wasn't very long before you changed your tune Moan all day and night that's all you do Me dinner's always burnt when I come home from up the pub But in sickness and in health I love ya In sickness and in health I said "I do".
