Okay, since we're getting onto lost music... :-)
There were both Bluegrass and (mild) Rock versions of songs who's main theme
was to NOT marry a -pretty- woman (if you want to be happy). ;-)
I do not know who did either song and have never even heard the bluegrass
version.
The chorus(?) of the rock version includes the lines:
If you want to be happy for the rest of your life,
never make a pret-ty woman your wife.
So from my particular point of view
get an ugly girl to marry you!
I would like to locate a copy of each of these, especially the bluegrass
version, for my brother. (He never heard of the rock version, I never heard of
the bluegrass version. May be totally different songs.
Interestingly, I like bluegrass better than rock. My brother likes rock
better than bluegrass. :-) :-) :-)
We have no idea who did either song or their actual titles!
Anyone else know?
