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 CHORUS
