You tell me "Willy, all I need is your attention"
Don't go out playin' that, let that ballroom be the one to miss ya
This lonesome ain't treatin' me right
You tell me "Daddy, that hard livin' is gonna get ya"
Just stay home baby, I'll hold you tight
That's when I lean down and I kiss ya
I'm gonna be home late again tonight
I get to drinkin', and I get to playin'
For people I don't even know in the crowd
And all you wanted was for me to hear what you were sayin'
Sometimes this little guitar gets a little loud

'Cause when I come home, and I find ya
Loaded up your car, start your engine
Saying, "Willy, Willy, I'm so sorry
But all I wanted was your attention
And now I'm sittin' here all alone
In this empty, lonesome kitchen
All I'm thinkin' 'bout is you, just you
You finally have all of my attention"
