I Love You More than Football

I've been a postman,

A salesman,

I spent two months in prison

For non-payment of taxes I was never forgiven

I wanna make an honest living and do right

By myself

I gotta make things right for my unhappy wife

And I know every trick in this God foresaken book

And I have to confess that I've made a lousy husband

And the only way that I can say sorry is

I can't believe what I'm saying

But don't you know

I love you more than football

I promised the kids a day at the beach

They were all dressed and ready

With their buckets and spades

But I was flat on my back in

Some pee-stained alley

Covered in puke feeling sorry for myself

And I know every trick in this God foresaken book

And I have to confess that I've made a lousy husband

And the only way that I can say sorry is

I can't believe what I'm saying

But don't you know

I love you more than football

And I know every trick in this God foresaken book

And I have to confess that I've made a lousy husband

And the only way that I can say sorry is

I love you more than football

Don't you know I love you more than football
