Stayin' Home Woman

(앨범: Another Lonely Song - 1974)

I spend the half the day cooking
But I wind up having dinner all alone
Because he stopped off with some friends to see
Just how much they could drink on their way home
By the time he makes it home the food is just about as cold as I am
And his staying home woman is getting tired of her staying out man

He oughta be a Texas rancher
Cause he sure spreads a lotta bull around
Telling how he won the war he made
The others finally lay all their weapons down
But there won't be a big parade tonight
When a hero comes marching home again
And his staying home woman's getting tired of her staying out man

He's the type of man that likes to brag
And boast about what little that he's done
While he's drinking
While he's out with ole friends laughing it up and having fun
What is he thinking
I know that another woman ain't about to ever cross his mind
Cause when it comes to loving he's coming home to mine

Well the lawn sure needs a cutting
And the hedges need to be trimed by the walk
But each time I mention work to him
He gives me dirty looks and double talk
It's a shame to know the one you love
Won't hardly even lend a helping hand
And his staying home woman's getting tired of her staying out man
And his staying home woman's getting tired of her staying out man
