In 1969, Marty Robbins suffered a massive heart attack and became one of the earliest patients to undergo a dangerous triple bypass surgery. Lying in a hospital bed, he wasn’t thinking of fame or stages — only of Marizona, the gentle wife who had stood by him from the leanest years to the height of his success. From that place of weakness came strength. Marty put his gratitude into words, crafting “My Woman, My Woman, My Wife” — not polished in a studio, but whispered from the heart of a man who had brushed against death. The song became both a tribute and a testimony: to love, to devotion, to the quiet power of a life shared.
