she loves my troubles away

i lost my job down at the docks

my old chevy is up on blocks

and i've got holes in both my socks

but she loves me

the ol' washing machine still squeaks

and our hot water heater leaks

and i ain't worked in fourteen weeks

but she loves me

and she loves my troubles away

every night she makes my day

troubles get me down but they never stay

'cause she loves my troubles away

and i can't give her fancy things

pretty clothes and diamond rings

nor the pleasure money brings

'cause she loves my troubles away

late at night she takes my hand

says

you know

i understand

you just do the best you can

then she loves me

and she loves my troubles away

every night she makes my day

troubles get me down but they never stay

'cause she loves my troubles away

yes

she loves my troubles away

every night she makes my day

troubles get me down but they never stay

'cause she loves my troubles away
