Good Enough To Be Your Wife Lyrics - Jeannie C. Riley

You ask me if we can live together 

Marriage doesn't fit your way of life 

And you say that you'll be with me forever 

Well if that's true, please make me your wife 

'Cause if I'm good enough to be your woman, good enough to share your life 

Good enough to live together, I'm good enough to be your wife 

Good enough to have your children, good enough to give 'em life 

Good enough to do your cooking, I'm good enough to be your wife 

I don't care what people say about us 

Loving one another isn't wrong 

And I don't care as long as we're together 

Right here next to you is where I belong 

But, if I'm good enough to be your woman, good enough to share your life 

Good enough to live together, I'm good enough to be your wife 

Good enough to have your children, good enough to give 'em life 

Good enough to do your cooking, I'm good enough to be your wife 

Darling I'm so glad you want me with you 

But sharin' someone's life just ain't the game 

So with you really want to live together 

Then first of all I've got to have your name 

'Cause if I'm good enough to be your woman, good enough to share your life 

Good enough to live together, I'm good enough to be your wife 

Good enough to have your children, good enough to give 'em life 

Good enough to do your cooking, I'm good enough to be your wife
