I made rum cake, spiced it some
Thinking that way I'd see you come
Througt the door while there's still light
But OK, you need work, you're on your way now
Looking sharp, but I know somehow
You won't hurry home tonight
I've got plans for us two, sweethart
So you say, and I know my part
Is to act like I don't see, but OK
There are places where they're hiring
But you're not much for inquiring
As to where the work might be
No, you've check out
All the sports bars, happy hours
Kareokes, sweets and sours
And that team you idolize
Who's that pouring drinks at half-time?
Tiny skirt and hidden tan lines
You undress her with your eyes
Never mind, the night will go on
Once you've got a little glow on
You've been known to take the mike
Sing for all your friends
They loved you long before I even knew you
And you're doing what you like
Come last call, you know I'll wait up
Like a child, you want to make up
For these nights, 'cuz it's a crime
Well OK, you tell me you'll change for my sake
Put an end to all this heartache
No more tears and wasted time
I look down, you're all disheveled
What hit you, my handsome devil?
How I'll hate myself for trying
But OK, you sit down, I warm your plate up
Kiss your picture, make my way up
To our room of love and crying
I made rum cake, spiced it some
