Married By the Bible, Divorced By the Law - Hank Snow
What a strange world we live in
What a shame oh what a shame
Someone's always quarrelin'
Then marriage don't remain
Divorces by the thousands
Is this human race insane
I always thought that
Marriage should be a sacred thing
Married by the bible divorced by the law
Everyday there's more and more
The worst I ever saw
Things have changed
They're not the same as the days of ma and pa
They were married by the bible
No divorce by the law
Steps are often taken without thinking twice
And oft times a child or two's
Who left to pay the price
Those little hearts so innocent
They don't know who's to blame
No mom and dad to love them
What a shame oh what a shame
Married by the bible and divorced by the law
Everyday there's more and more
The worst I ever saw
Things have changed
They're not the same as the days of ma and pa
They were married by the bible
No divorce by the law
Married by the bible divorced by the law
Everyday there's more and more
The worst I ever saw
Things have changed
They're not the same as the days of ma and pa
They were married by the bible
No divorce by the law
