(Verse)
|
Riding in the backseat, sipping on a Pepsi
|
Looking out the window, driving to the bus stop together
|
I tell her only three sleeps and I¡¯ll be right back
|
And then we¡¯re gonna have a good time when I come together
|
|
(Verse)
|
And I call her every single night
|
I¡¯ll miss her every day
|
And if she kissed me and waved goodbye
|
I could hear her say
|
|
(Chorus)
|
Stay at home, mother
|
Stay at home
|
Stay at home, mother
|
Stay at home
|
|
(Verse)
|
I¡¯ve been working late nights making up for the times
|
That I wasn¡¯t in the crowd cheering out loud at our school plays
|
Tickets to a circus, maybe a new bike
|
I just want her to know that I love her more than working all day
|
|
(Verse)
|
But the price will never measure up
|
To what¡¯s inside a box
|
While I run along around the world
|
She tells me to stop
|
|
(Chorus)
|
And stay at home, mother
|
Stay at home
|
Stay at home, mother
|
Stay at home
|
|
(Verse)
|
We could play house and pretend
|
That tomorrow you won¡¯t be gone
|
Stay at home, mother
|
Stay at home
|
|
(Bridge)
|
I wish some things were different
|
Doesn¡¯t change one memory
|
My little girl grew up
|
While I was too busy to see
|
That she¡¯s become the one thing
|
That I could never be
|
|
(Chorus)
|
Stay at home, mother
|
Stay at home
|
Stay at home, mother
|
Stay at home
|
|
(Verse)
|
She could have a house and couple kids
|
And never have to be involved
|
As a stay at home mother
|
Stay at home mother
|
Stay at home¡¦.
