Well, you're just in time to be too late
I tried to but I couldn't wait
And now I 've got another date
So I won't be home no more
You're just in time to miss the boat
'Cause I won't be home no more.
I stood around a month or two
And waited for your call
Now I 'm too busy pitchin' woo
So come around next fall
I scratched your name right off my slate
And hung a sign on my front gate
You're just in time to be too late
And I won't be home no more.
Well, you're just in time to turn around
And call around next May or June
'Cause I won't be home no more.
