[E]It's like sitting in the kitchen When the music's really bitchin' Your nose it starts to itchin' As you count your old age pension D[A]id I forget to mention The ride that I was hitchin' To the al[E]uminum convention I had such good intentions Ke[B7]ep you cotton pickin' fingers off my song poem And le[E]ave the lights on till you baby gets home.
Le[E]ave the lights on till you baby gets home. Leave the lights on till you baby gets home. Do[A]n't forget your toothbrush Your hairbrush and your comb L[E]eave the lights on till you baby gets home.
