When I told my baby
Do what you wanna do
Well I had no idea
Just what she'd put me through
Every night she's runnin' 'round
Singin' songs in your hometown
there ain't no one to love me
When the sun goes down
Chorus:
Well, she's everybody's sweetheart
Everybody's sweetheart but mine
I shoulda kept her barefoot
Barefoot and pregnant all the time
I used to be the first in line
Now I've fallen way behind
She's everybody's sweetheart
Everybody's sweetheart but mine
All that country club money
Lord it sure looked good to me... yeah it did
Playin' golf with those fat cats
How much better could life be
They all think I've got it made
They see your face on every page
Of every magazine
Across the USA
Chorus
If you see her tell her hi
And everything will be all right
Tell her that I love her
'Til the day I die
Chorus
Come on homeAfter a year like this one
I'm surprised I do not hate your guts and
After a year like this one
I'm surprised I still love music just as much
After a year like this one
I'm surprised I do not "eat my eye"?
After a year like this one
I'm sorry if I'm not cordial to every one
CHORUS:
La La La La La La La La De Di De Di La La La La Li
La La La La La La La La De Di De Di La La Li Li Li
La La La La La La La La De Di De Di La Di Da Di Di
La La la de di wo oh oh o...
After a year like this one
I'm surprised I am convinced at all and
After a year like this one
I do not roll my eyes at less than another
After a year like this one
I can't help but wonder how they've been and
After a year like this one
I think I'll leave it all to my next of kin...
CHORUS
After a year like this one
I'm surprised we're all not weeping drunks and
After a year like this one
I want you to choose the restaurant and then
After a year like this one
I'll need a good whole 16 months alone and
After a year like this one
I think I'll thank the west coast beaches I came home.
CHORUS
