Stranger livin' in my house I'm writing this letter to you
There's a few odds and ends in my house that I neglected to do
Take care of the little things I'm depending on you
And love my sweet baby I neglected her too
The garden I planted needs water the house needs paintin' outside
The yard could stand a little mowin' each time that I pass by
Take care of the little things I neglected to do
And love my sweet baby I neglected her too
A washing machine's out of water by the way the car payment's due
As long as my roof's over your head as long as you're wearing my shoes
Take care of the little things I neglected to do
And love my sweet baby I neglected her too
And if my baby gets lonesome and calls my name in the night
Whispers sweet nothings tenderly and gently hold her tight
Take care of the little things I neglected to do
And love my sweet baby I neglected her too
And love my sweet baby I neglected her too
