~A little ditty about a way of life…every day we all should be so creative and relaxed.~

I live like an artist
When my wife is out of town
Walk around in my shorts
Leave guitars all around
No “honey-do” list
To get done by noon
Just keep the dog barkin’
Get’em medication soon
I live like an artist
When my wife is out of town

I don’t sleep real well
With her pillows….. in my arms
And I miss her so badly……
But being an artist has a certain charm

An artist can’t be bothered
By structure or rules
Or painting the shed
Or picking up his tools
I work on my music
And sing nice and loud
And let the phone ring
When I feel so endowed
I live like an artist when my wife is out of town

I drink from the carton
leave dishes in the sink
talk out loud
even say what I think
call up the boys
have a card game tonight
haven’t been wrong
only been right
I live like an artist when my wife is out of town

The dog’s up and running
He hears her coming home
Quick pick up the place
You’re no longer at home
The kitchen is clean
And the carpet’s been swept
The artist is leaving
But happy you bet
To live like an artist
When my wife is out of town
