Alan Jackson - Work In Progress

Okay I forgot about the trash

I didn't trim the long hairs on my mustache

I did buy you a ring I believe it was back in '93

Alright I admit it I forgot our anniversary

But I did pick up the baby this morning at the nursery

That ain't no big thing but it's gold star for me



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 probably need to reread it

But I'm starting to see now what you've been saying is right



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 sure 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 healthy thing like you want me to do

But that low fat, no fat's getting hard to CHEW

Now I love your cooking honey

But sometimes I need some real food



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
