I don't know how to tell her I didn't get that raise in pay today.
C G
And I know how much she wanted the dress in Baker's window,
D G D
And it breaks my heart to see her have to wait.
D G D
And cancel all the plans she made to celebrate.
C G D
But I can count on her to take it with a smile and not a frown.

She knows that life has it's little ups and downs,

And no one grabs the brass ring everytime,

But she don't mind.

The new house plans we've had so long, I guess will gather dust another year.
And the daffodils are bloomin' that she planted way last fall
Up on the hill, over by the gate.
Lord knows I hate to say again, we'll have to wait.
But you can bet she'll just take it with a smile and not a frown.
She knows that life has it's little ups and downs,
Like ponies on a merry-go-round.
And no one grabs the brass ring everytime,
But she don't mind.
She wears a gold ring on her finger,
And I'm so glad that it's mine.
She wears a gold ring on her finger,
And I'm so glad that it's mine.
