Take the ribbon from your hair shake it off and let it fall
But it'll get dirty down the floor why don't you hang it on the wall
Come in lay down by my side would you please turn off that light
See I don't care them things just right help me fake it through the night
Lord I hope there's nothing wrong and I'm trying to understand
You say that big devil's comin' home tomorrow well tonight you don't need Ben
Put that ribbon back in your hair and get your body out of my sight
All I'm keepin' is this wine to help me fake it through the night
It's about of your way darlin' yes it soon will be daylight
I guess it's sad to be alone so I'll just fake it through the night
Cause that big devil would break my bones so I'll just fake it through the night
