I wish to God I never saw you, Mag
I wish you never quit your job and came with me
I wish we never bought a and a white dress
For you to get in the day we ran off to a minister
And told him we would love each other and care of each other
Always and always long the sun and the rain lasts anywhere
Yes, I'm wishing now you lived somewhere away from here
I was a bum on the bumpers a thousand away dead broke
I wish the kids had come
And rent and coal and clothes to for
And a grocery man calling for cash,
day cash for beans and prunes
I wish God I never saw you, Mag
I wish God the kids had never come
