Sometimes I get upset when people treat me bad
I don't have time to think and so I get real mad
I pull me hair and find somewhere that I can be alone
But when I do I think of you and then I hurry home
Where I've got chores to keep me busy, a clock to keep my time
A pretty girl to love me, with the same last name as mine
And when the flowers wilt, a big old quilt to keep us warm
I've got the sun to see your blue eyes and tonight you're in my arms
Sometimes I get unwound when fancy cars drive past
Money don't get me down, but I can't make it last
I bite my nails and if that fails I go get myself stoned
But when I do I think of you and head myself back home
Where I've got chores to keep me busy, a clock to keep my time
A pretty girl to love me, with the same last name as mine
And when the flowers wilt, a big old quilt to keep us warm
I've got the sun to see your blue eyes and tonight you're in my arms
Chorus repeat
