Loretta Lynn
The Man of the House
[Intro]
When the man of the house ain't never home
[Verse 1]
Here I am again tonight all by myself
It's not hard to figure out that you're out with someone else
So this girl's gettin' ready, gettin' set to go wrong
'Cause the man of the house ain't never home
[Chorus]
When the man of the house ain't never home
That's enough to cause most women to go wrong
When you stagger in tonight and find me gone
It's 'cause the man of the house ain't never home
[Verse 2]
You didn't think that I would ever slip and fall
That's what you get for thinkin', and don't forget you caused it all
And it gets pretty lonesome when you have to sleep alone
When the man of the house ain't never home
[Chorus]
When the man of the house ain't never home
That's enough to cause most women to go wrong
When you stagger in tonight and find me gone
It's 'cause the man of the house ain't never home
[Refrain]
No, the man of the house ain't never home
