My Life Is at Home

I was just thinking
Most of last Wednesday
I hope we're together
From here until doomsday

We could be each other's arms
We'd keep each other free from harm
'Cause when it's all stripped to the bone
My life is at home

Spring cleanin's coming
To amuse the cold weather so
Put away your long johns
All your thick sweaters

And we'll cut off all our winter hair
Sit out on the lawn chairs
And the sun forgets that we're here
We forget our couriers

But all the lukewarm weeks at 60 degrees
Now we're hoping it's humid, show our sunburned knees
'Cause once in a lifetime, once in a while
The sun will shine on me

It's Thursday I'm leavin'
Skip town I'm runnin'
There's cars and new faces
And jokes that aren't funny

But we laugh at them anyway
Do anything just to kill the day
No matter how far that I go
Not so far away

But all the lukewarm weeks at 60 degrees
Now we're hoping it's humid, show our sunburned knees
'Cause once in a lifetime, once in a while
The sun will shine on me

All the lukewarm weeks at 60 degrees
Now we're hoping it's humid, show our sunburned knees
'Cause once in a lifetime, once in a while
The sun will shine on me

All the humid nights parked under street lights
Now my baby's riding shotgun in her knee high tights
She looks like Heaven and I feel like the devil
In my Sunday whites

'Cause once in a while
The sun shines on me
