Suburban Life

(albüm: Brotherly Love - 1982)

I came home late and she flew off the handle
I said it couldn't wait
She said don't hand me that excuse

The same thing just happened to me
Just ain't that funny
We try to explain so let's try something new

Let's give up this suburban life
For a bourbon life
Leave the kids and wife for a honky tonk home
Go from a family man
To a one night stand
Slip off our wedding bands and tie one on

This place sure is crowded
But ain't it lonely
I sure wish I had my woman holding me

Yeah, you know that really was a silly quarrel
So don't you think it's time for us to leave

And get back to that suburban life
Had enough of this bourbon life
Miss the kids and wife and our happy home
'Cause we're the family men
Don't need no one night stand
Slip on our wedding bands and step back home
Slip on our wedding bands and slip back home
