Okay I forgot about the trash I didn't trim the long hairs on my moustache I did buy you a ring I believe it was back in '93 Alright I admit I forgot our anniversary I did pick up the baby this morning at the nursery That ain't no big thing but it's a gold star for me Chorus You get tired and disgusted with me When I can't be just what you want me to be I still love you and I try real hard I swear one day you'll have a brand new car I even asked the Lord to try to help me He looked down from heaven and said to tell you please Just be patient I'm a work in progress I'm sorry I got mad waiting in the truck It seemed like hours you getting all dressed up Just to go to Shoney's on a Wednesday night I read that book you gave me about Mars and Venus I think it's sinking in but I probably need to reread it But I'm starting to see now what you've been saying is right Chorus You get tired and disgusted with me When I can't be just what you want me to be I still love you and I try real hard I swear one day you'll have a brand new car I even asked the Lord to try to help me He looked down from heaven and said to tell you please Just be patient I'm a work in progress I know you meant well when you bought me those clogs But my heels get hot down by the muffler on my hog I'm sure they're stylish but I'll take my boots I try to do that health thing like you want me to do But that low fat, no fat's gettin' hard to chew Now I love your cooking honey But sometimes I need some real food Chorus You get tired and disgusted with me When I can't be just what you want me to be I still love you and I try real hard I swear one day you'll have a brand new car I even asked the Lord to try to help me He looked down from heaven and said to tell you please Just be patient I'm a work in progress Oh honey just be patient now I'm a work in progress
