NUMBER 4 on COUNTRY POP and climbing. Story of an unsung wife who gets some of the praise she richly deserves in this song. Written by Louis Brown and the awesome Larry Hester. Terrific vocal by Butch Baker, a major label singer.

Story behind the song
This song was motivated by the selflessness of a good wife. The absolute truth about a woman who is THE BETTER HALF. The other half has still got
some rough edges.
Lyrics
THE BETTER HALF
Copyright Louis Brown/Larry Hester
Our two hearts beat as one
But we're very different, too
Half of us is kind
And gentle through and through
She always wears a smile
Warmer than the sun
The other half is rough.....
The Good Lord isn't done
I BOW TO THE BETTER HALF
SHE'S ALL MY DREAMS COULD BE
I'LL SAY ONE THING ON MY BEHALF....
THE LUCKY HALF IS ME
I say my prayers each morning
To our Father up above
I thank Him for the half
Who brings me so much love
That angel stops the rain
That falls on my parade
You could say I'm the half
Who really has it made
CHORUS
