I Take It on Home - Steve Lawrence

Sometimes at the end of the day

Before I head home, I make a stop along the way

A couple of drinks, wait for the 5 o’clock rush to go by

And almost always there’s a lady

Oh, and it’s so hard, she starts coming on

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

Sometimes I’ve gotta go out of town

I’ll be gone for a couple of days

And this buddy of mine he’s a hound in the first degree

And almost always there’s the ladies

And it ain’t easy there out and alone

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

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

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

And I wouldn’t know where to turn to if she was gone

So when I ain’t working, I don’t hang out I take it on home

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