Dinner Can Wait
Dinner can wait but you're always home late
Baby's in bed and I'm watching Mr. Ed
And I'm sittin' here thinking he does more talking than we ever did
The lamp in the corner could use a new bulb
Could use a new shade too
The bills still need to be paid
They're long overdue
I haven't seen you since Tuesday
That'll be a week tomorrow
How I hope you're still in Colorado
But you're probably in another state
But if the Lord called you
Then and then only can dinner wait
I hope you're safe
I hope you're warm
'Cause baby and I are weathering the storm
I hope she's a doll and everything and more
I hope you find everything you was looking for
I haven't brushed my hair or flossed my teeth
Seems I needed you like a sword needs a sheath
To keep the blood of the world off my back and to have someplace to sleep
But I hope you'll come back real soon
Because baby is blowing kisses right up to the moon
Because that's where he thinks you are
But I know you better you're probably in some bar
With that waitress from Boulder
She's restin' her pretty head right on your shoulder
But that's just my luck, that's just my fate
Oh, hun, I don't think dinner can wait
I hope you're safe
I hope you're warm
'Cause baby and I are weathering the storm
I hope she's a doll and everything and more
I hope you find everything you was looking for
Yeah I hope it's everything you was looking for
Baby's in bed and I'm watching Mr. Ed
And I'm sittin' here thinking he does more talking than we ever did
The lamp in the corner could use a new bulb
Could use a new shade too
The bills still need to be paid
They're long overdue
I haven't seen you since Tuesday
That'll be a week tomorrow
How I hope you're still in Colorado
But you're probably in another state
But if the Lord called you
Then and then only can dinner wait
I hope you're safe
I hope you're warm
'Cause baby and I are weathering the storm
I hope she's a doll and everything and more
I hope you find everything you was looking for
I haven't brushed my hair or flossed my teeth
Seems I needed you like a sword needs a sheath
To keep the blood of the world off my back and to have someplace to sleep
But I hope you'll come back real soon
Because baby is blowing kisses right up to the moon
Because that's where he thinks you are
But I know you better you're probably in some bar
With that waitress from Boulder
She's restin' her pretty head right on your shoulder
But that's just my luck, that's just my fate
Oh, hun, I don't think dinner can wait
I hope you're safe
I hope you're warm
'Cause baby and I are weathering the storm
I hope she's a doll and everything and more
I hope you find everything you was looking for
Yeah I hope it's everything you was looking for
