I spend the half the day cookin' But I wind up havin' dinner all alone Because he stopped off with some friends to see Just how much they could drink on their way home By the time he makes it home the food is just about as cold as I am And his stayin' home woman is gettin' tired of her stayin' out man He oughta be a Texas rancher Cause he sure spreads a lotta bull around Tellin' how he won the war he made The others finally lay all their weapons down But there won't be a big parade tonight When a hero comes marchin' home again And his stayin' home woman's gettin' tired of her stayin' out man He's the type of man that likes to brag And boast about what little that he's done While he's drinkin' While he's out with ole friends laughin' it up and havin' fun What is he thinkin' I know that another woman ain't about to ever cross his mind Cause when it comes to lovin' he's comin' home to mine Well the lawn sure needs a cuttin' And the hedges need to be trimed by the walk But each time I mention work to him He gives me dirty looks and double talk It's a shame to know the one you love Won't hardly even lend a helpin' hand And his stayin' home woman gettin' tired of her stayin' out man And his stayin' home woman gettin' tired of her stayin' out man
