Katie

I always love the way he looks down
With his consternation
I love to look at the sweat on his brow
Under the beads of love and calm frustration

When he smiles I hear a sound
Crinkling at the corner of his little mouth
Although he was raised in California
He was born in the South

Oh, Katie
I need you
To save me
From this mess
From this world that I've got myself in

Don't leave me
Have faith in me
Cause I don't wanna be all alone
Cause there's nobody else home

In the morning he always liked to make me
Fries and mashed potatoes
I said I love you baby
More than I could ever love the rest of Laredo
He used to look me in the eyes and say
Baby, forever is forever
He liked to say I'm younger looking
But he's much more clever

Oh, Katie
Don't leave me
Don't put me on the shelf
Don't ask me not to show up
Cause I don't wanna be all by myself

He used to come over early, early every morning
But now I hardly see him
He just sits there with his little belly yawning

I don't like the way his beard looks
And he seems to be always daydreaming
He sits on his computer and plays a game
And I just hear some background noise
And a little screaming

Oh, Katie
I need you
To save me
From this world
From this mess
That I got myself in

I met a guy, his name was Tommy
He helped me plan my summer vacation
He asked me if I was married and I said no
To Tom's illation

At that moment I thought of my husband
And I kind of fell into a deep depression
I wish, I wish old Tommy
Would could just take me on a vacation
A vacation

Oh
Katie
I need you
To save me
From this world
From this mess
That I got myself in

Believe me
When I tell you
I'm all by myself
I'm all alone

I got nobody at home
