At the end of the day, when the bread has been worn
She never knows where he'll go & the layoffs no luck
But water fills up the washing machine, she wonders what the next call will bring.
God bless the pipeliners wife
She never asked to live this crazy life
They say he lays miles by day
She lays lonely at night
God bless the pipeliners wife
The kids always ask "when is daddy coming back?"
But she knows there's a fine line between hope and facts
One month turns to three
And she tries to stay tough like the man that she married for the family she loves
God bless the pipeliners wife
She never asked to live this crazy life
They say he lays miles by day
She lays lonely at night
God bless the pipeliners wife
When her head hits the pillow she silently prays "God keep him safe and out of harm's way"
God bless the pipeliners wife
She never asked to live this crazy life
They say he lays miles by day
She lays lonely at night
God bless the pipeliners wife
God bless the pipeliners wife
