D-i-v-o-r-c-e Lyrics - The Essential Tammy Wynette - Tammy Wynette

Our little boy is four years old and quite a little man 

So we spell out the words we don't want him to understand 

Like T-O-Y or maybe S-U-R-P-R-I-S-E 

But the words we're hiding from him now 

Tears the heart right out of me. 

Our D-I-V-O-R-C-E becomes final today 

Me and little J-O-E will be goin' away 

I love you both and it will be pure H-E double L for me 

Oh, I wish that we could stop this D-I-V-O-R-C-E. 

Watch him smile, he thinks it Christmas 

Or his fifth birthday 

And he thinks C-U-S-T-O-D-Y spells fun or play 

I spell out all the hurtin' words 

And turn my head when I speak 

'Cause I can't spell away this hurt 

That's drippin' down my cheek.
