First Year Blues - Previously Unreleased lyrics by Hank Williams

Now I've been married about six months
Only six months, you see
The first three months was all okay
The last three is killin' me

My wife began the hissin', she cut down on her kissin'
And then she failed to shine my shoes
My shirts became wrinkled, my pants with dirt were sprinkled
And I took the first year blues

Well, then she started naggin', she left the sink a saggin'
With dishes piled up high
The food upon the table she said if I get able
I'd cook something by and by

Then I began to wonder if I had made a blunder
When I said I do
She must have read my thinkin', her eyes began to blinkin'
And that gal broke in two

Well I heard the dishes crashin' and I began to dashin'

Gettin' out of sight
For right there was my honey on who I'd spent my money
Turnin' into dynamite

Then after she'd exploded, her meanness all unloaded
And things began to simmer down
I found myself a bleedin' and very much a needin'
Of stitches taken all around

Well, then she started cryin', I felt myself a sighin'
And then I took her in my arms
I was afraid to scold her so I just gently told her
She didn't do a bit of harm

Now the first six months is over and I am much the older
And experienced with a wife
If I can stand the next six my friends all say I'll be fixed
To take it the rest of my life
