Sure is rough out tonight,
sure is a long way, from being "alright".
So let me help you just wind on down,
I know you've been busy, comin' home from town.
Bills need paying, dryer needs fixin', and the kids drew all over the walls again.
Sorry 'bout that, but don't you worry none,
You can pay'em tomorrow, I'll get right fixed, and let the kids have fun.
Right now, kick off your heels, and out of your suit,
I promise, lil' Clara ain't breakin' your flute (not yet).
C'mon down with me, to the living room.
Here's our porch that's lookin' in, hey c'mon now and smile, no cause for doom.
Yeah sure, maybe I burnt the cake again, I blame it on the timer,
heck forget the cookin', we'll order from Dave, at that cook-out diner.
It's story time again, keep the kids busy, while I make the call,
now don't you worry none, I promise it won't take no time at all.
There's that smile,
I've been waiting so long.
And here's that tune on the radio, that I think ain't a song.
Sure beat me up, you say it alot, tell the town,
but ain't you happy now, you're windin' down?
Sun's comin' out again, there you are my good ol' pal,
guess the winds died out, wouldn't say, ol' gal?
