Where Happiness Lies

Married life is a funny thing,
We take the fling with a wedding ring.
With some its one continuous fight,
They kick and scratch and sometimes bite.

God made all things to live by pair,
The beasts of field and birds of air
He made to make no bad mistakes,
But man he left to make some breaks.

The creatures dumb of all the earth,
By Nature’s laws are giving birth.
But laws of God for good of man,
By men are broken out of ban.

When man does choose his mate for life,
He would avoid so much of strife,
If he would use his common sense,
And not so often be so dense.

For men who fail to keep in sight,
The laws of God for doing right,
The laws of man are also made,
With price to pay if you evade.

But married life will have its flaws,
Till states alike have divorce laws.
They’ve got to come to save the home,
Or things will be just like Old Rome.

Words so sweet and words of leaven,
Are those of Mother, Home and Heaven.
When these we learn and get them clear,
No more divorce we then will fear.

To man his married life’s a boon,
If it is sweet and right in tune.
But fights and scraps and family jars,
Are worse than some old motor cars.

When trouble brews twixt man and wife,
As troubles do in married life,
Take our advice and seek a breaker,
The best for you is a Studebaker.
