Well I was out a drinkin'

With a couple of friends of mine

When the bartender handed me the telephone

Says ";There's a wife on the line.";

I told her I was just a drinkin'

With a couple of buddies I knew

She told me in a few short words

Just a what she wanted me to do



She said ";Oh won't you come home and talk to a stranger.

Cause you might even make yourself a friend.";

She said ";Won't you come home and talk to a stranger.

It's the only place in days you haven't been.";



Well I sat there about an hour

Talkin' with the rest of the guys

When she walked through that front door

She had ";Get home"; in her eyes

She said ";You've danced and talked

With every woman in town but me.

And if you'd just come around the house

You might like my company.";



She said ";Oh won't you come home and talk to a stranger.

Cause you might even make yourself a friend.";

She said ";Won't you come home and talk to a stranger.

It's the only place in days you haven't been.";



She said ";Oh won't you come home and talk to a stranger.

Cause you might even make yourself a friend.";

She said ";Won't you come home and talk to a stranger.

It's the only place in days you haven't been.";
