🎤 My Substitute Wife (His Story) ~ Original Lyrics by Travis R. Crouch. Music and Vocals produced with SUNO Ai (2026) My Substitute Wife (His Story) She left her home for a man, Who sang in a rock’n’roll band. Her lonely eyes were full of stars, For this man who sang in smoky city bars. With me she thought there must be more in life, But all I wanted was a woman, So, she became... My substitute wife. She joined this singer, we formed a band, And together we toured across this land. From top to bottom and round some more, Working hard, she always knew the score. Long nights spent learning songs and booking shows, Making coffee and ironing my damn clothes. Then one day to her dismay, I packed my things and walked away. Said I was tired of the music scene, This life with her and all of our dreams— But just a few days later, I came crawling back, Said I thought I loved this woman, The only one who could keep me on track. Twelve more years had passed us by, And four more times I said my goodbyes. Frustrated with my failing music career, I smashed my guitar, drinkin’ too much beer. She said this life’s no good for us, I feel like such a fool. I begged her for forgiveness; God, I was the fool. I thought I was a superstar, Told myself I could do better by far, Till after fourteen years of standing by my side I finally realised what I'd refused to see, I was the one who held her back. And now she’s broken free From this substitute life, She’ll never be again... My substitute wife. Oooooh She left her home for this man
