Well, you thought I'd be waiting up
When you come home last night
You'd been out with all the boys
And you ended up half tight

But liquor and love they just don't mix
Leave the bottle or me behind
And don't come home a drinkin' with lovin' on your mind
No, don't come home a drinkin' with lovin' on your mind

Just stay out there on the town
And see what you can find
'Cause if you want that kind of love
Well, you don't need none of mine
So don't come home a drinkin' with lovin' on your mind

You never take me anywhere
Because you're always gone
And many a night I've laid awake
And cried here all alone

And you come in a kissin' on me
It happens every time
No don't come home a drinkin' with lovin' on your mind
No don't come home a drinkin' with lovin' on your mind
Just stay out there on the town and see what you can find
'Cause if you want that kind of love
Well, you don't need none of mine
So don't come home a drinkin' with lovin' on your mind
No, don't come home a drinkin' with lovin' on your mind
