chorus: harry’s wife, harry’s wife, what you gonna do with the rest of your life? are you just gonna lay down roll over and die? harry’s wife, harry’s wife, are you gonna make the best of your life? stand up lady, and spit in harry’s eye!

verse 4. harry’s wife was christened emily jane but few if any use her name she’s worn a label for most of her life mother, housekeeper and dutiful wife so emily jane has shed no tears just thirty pounds and fifteen years got a new job, new friends and new clothes after years spent as a daisy, she’s bloomin’ like a rose
verse 5. emily jane’s cast aside her veil lifted her game and broken out of jail moved from the shadow into the light and i think she’s goin’ to be all right cause no matter whatever path she takes at least she’ll be makin’ her own mistakes her life will never be the same since she got to know a woman called emily jane jro
