There is no strife

Like a lonely wife.


You could earn a bounty

And you need to do your duty.

But your duty to yourself

Is a very close second to your duty

To keep your wife afar from distress.


How can you love and cherish

Your wife sans anguish

If you cause your wife

To be a lonely wife?
