My baby's at home with her radio on
A hot meal and a tall stiff drink
I think I'll sing her a lullaby
And I'll watch her fall fast a sleep
One day she walked by me and lightning was striking
And the clouds they were burning black
She swept back her hair and the clouds they did stare
As the s unshine pushed it's way back
(chorus)
And there's only one place I wanna be when the day is done
Well that's lying half stoned outta my mind
Wrapped up in your love.
I spent some time on a California line
I was shipping parts back east
And the day soon came they released me from my chains
I had all the money that I'd need
And them greyhounds ran slow and the hours ran long
Awe but I was finally on my way
I stepped through the doorway and that big house was empty
And there ain't no words to explain
(repeat chorus)
And there's only one place I wanna be when the day is done
Well that's lying half stoned outta my mind
Wrapped up in your love.
Well, someday I'll die from the pains in my life
And I'm sent where there's pain no more
All I can say is there'd better be a way
For me to hold close the one that I adore
Heaven's a place no one wants to face b efore the time is t hrough
And if ever a realm existed in hell, It would be me without you
(repeat chorus)
And there's only one place I wanna be when the day is done
Well that's lying half stoned outta my mind
Wrapped up in your love.
