I Take It On Home

Now sometimes at the end of the day

Before I head home I make a stop along the way

Have a couple of drinks and wait for the five O'clock rush to go by

And almost always there's a lady

Oh, and it's so hard when she starts coming on

But I back it on up, turn it around and take it on home

And sometimes I've gotta go out of town

And I'll be gone for a couple of days

And this buddy of mine, let me tell you

He's a hound in the first degree

And almost always there's the ladies

Lord, and it ain't easy, boys, when you're out and all alone

But I back it on up, turn it around and take it on home

I take it on home to my woman who sticks by me

'Cause I believe she'd do the same if she was me

And I would not know where to turn to

Lord, if she was gone, no, I wouldn't

And when I ain't a workin'

No, I don't hang out, I take it on home

I back it on up, turn it around, and take it on home
