Newly-weds playing at husbands and wives
Don't they know it's their lives they are gambling?
They dive in the deep end of life with a weekend
of nice "Just what I've always wanted"

But on the other hand she's got a ring
Love conquers everything
Giving and taking a living and making it work

He worries all day about fools at his door
It's for sure there's no law against trying

But on the other hand she's got a ring
Love conquers everything
Giving and taking a living and making it work

Newly-weds playing at husbands and wives
Don't they know it's their lives they are gambling?
