"Pregnant Again" lyrics

Pregnant Again

The car payment's late
And the mortgage is due
And three of the children
Are down with the flu
And this week the eggs
Cost us one dollar nine
And dinner was bread
With white gravy and I'm

Pregnant again
What will we do?
Pregnant again
It just can't be true
The doctor just smiled
And said, "Young lady, you
Are pregnant again"

We've run out of milk
And the baby needs more
I can't get the gas
To get down to the store
With two almost grown
And there's one on my knee
Oh, honey, it's just not
A good time to be

Pregnant again
What do you know?
Pregnant again
And it's starting to show
When daddy comes home
I'll just tell him, "Hello
I'm pregnant, oh gee, again"

The crib in the attics
All covered with grime
And I used all the diapers
For dust cloths last time
If I were still thirty
I just might not mind
The thought of another
Pink little behind

My husband works hard
Two jobs on the side
He doesn't have much
But he sure got his pride
He's loving and loyal
And he brings home each dime
But what will he say
When I tell him that I am

Pregnant again
Where will we go?
Pregnant again
It just can't be so
But I never could count
When the lights were down low
And I'm pregnant again

There goes the new washer
We needed so bad
There goes the vacation
That we never had
There goes the new TV
I thought we'd enjoy
Ah, honey, who cares?
I hope it's a boy
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
