The scaffolder's wife Drivin' out of the yard With a face that's as hard As a scaffolder's bar When she goes into town She might take the top down On the car The quick little steps In the stiletto boots And the hair with the roots She comes in as a rule To get the nails done And the tan for the sun When the kids are in school don't begrudge her the Merc It's been nothin' but work and a hard life Losin' her looks over company books The scaffolder's wife In the wicked old days When they went it alone Kept the company goin' On a wing and a prayer They don't pay what they owe When they have the cash flow They don't care don't begrudge her the Merc It's been nothin' but work and a hard life Losin' her looks over company books The scaffolder's wife, the scaffolder's wife
