lyrics

Peace and Tranquility
Is something so many would kill for
Everybody's tryin' real hard
But it seems so simple to me

You get a wife
You get a car
You're halfway there
But it's still pretty far
You have a kid
You get a house
You call it home

Now livin' alone
Ain't no fun
Woman beaten beer drinkin'
The stud man's life ain't for me
So give me a woman
Who is proud and who is able
To keep me satisfied
In bed and at the kitchen table
Lord knows I've got such an appetite

You get a wife
You get a car
Now you're halfway there
But it's still pretty far
You have a kid
You get a house
You call it home
Home home
