One's On The Way (feat. Margo Price)
They say to have her hair done, Liz flies all the way to France
Jackie's seen in a discotheque doin' a brand new dance
And the White House social season should be glitterin' and gay
But here in Topeka, the rain is a-fallin'
The faucet is a-drippin' and the kids are a-bawlin'
One of them is toddlin' and one is a-crawlin' and one's on the way
I'm glad that Raquel Welch just signed a million dollar pact
Debbie's out in Vegas workin' up a brand new act
While the TV's showin' Newlyweds, a real fun game to play
But here in Topeka, the screen door's a-bangin'
The coffee's boilin' over and the wash needs a-hangin'
One wants a cookie and one wants a changin' and one's on the way
What was I doin'? Judy, get away from there
Darn, there goes the phone
Hello, honey, what's that you say?
You're bringin' a few Army buddies home?
You're callin' from a bar? Get away from there!
No, not you, honey, I was talkin' to the baby
Honey, could you stop at the store on your way home and
Hello? (Hello?) Hello? (Hello?)
Well, I'll be-
The girls in New York City, they all march for women's lib
Better Homes and Gardens shows, a modern way to live
And the pill may change the world tomorrow but meanwhile, today
Here in Topeka, the rain is a-fallin'
Dog is a-barkin' and the floor needs a-scrubbin'
One of them is toddlin' and one is a-crawlin' and one's on the way
Oh gee, I hope it ain't twins again
Jackie's seen in a discotheque doin' a brand new dance
And the White House social season should be glitterin' and gay
But here in Topeka, the rain is a-fallin'
The faucet is a-drippin' and the kids are a-bawlin'
One of them is toddlin' and one is a-crawlin' and one's on the way
I'm glad that Raquel Welch just signed a million dollar pact
Debbie's out in Vegas workin' up a brand new act
While the TV's showin' Newlyweds, a real fun game to play
But here in Topeka, the screen door's a-bangin'
The coffee's boilin' over and the wash needs a-hangin'
One wants a cookie and one wants a changin' and one's on the way
What was I doin'? Judy, get away from there
Darn, there goes the phone
Hello, honey, what's that you say?
You're bringin' a few Army buddies home?
You're callin' from a bar? Get away from there!
No, not you, honey, I was talkin' to the baby
Honey, could you stop at the store on your way home and
Hello? (Hello?) Hello? (Hello?)
Well, I'll be-
The girls in New York City, they all march for women's lib
Better Homes and Gardens shows, a modern way to live
And the pill may change the world tomorrow but meanwhile, today
Here in Topeka, the rain is a-fallin'
Dog is a-barkin' and the floor needs a-scrubbin'
One of them is toddlin' and one is a-crawlin' and one's on the way
Oh gee, I hope it ain't twins again
