"Born In The Dark" lyrics

"Born In The Dark"

You call me from the office to say you're workin' late
Well, I admire your dedication
But where's the extra pay?
I meet you at the front door with wine on your breath
I couldn't help but notice
There's a button off your dress
Said you and your girlfriends just stopped to eat a bite
I was born in the dark, but it wasn't last night

Friday, I came home and you was lookin' fit to kill
Said you're goin' to your sister's
'Cause your sister's feelin' ill
I called her house all weekend just to see if she was fine
I never got an answer
I must have called a hundred times
She suddenly got better
Y'all took in all the sights
I was born in the dark, but it wasn't last night

Say, hey, sweet baby, I'm no fool
There's somethin' goin' on
And it just ain't good
Well, come on, baby
Well, let's talk straight
You've got one last chance and a choice to make

Say, hey, sweet baby, I'm no fool
There's somethin' goin' on
And it just ain't good
So, come on, honey
Well, let's talk straight
You've got one last chance and a choice to make

Well, I ask you why you never wear that pretty négligée
It seems that you misplaced it
At least, that's what you say
You think I made it up and I don't trust you anymore
But I found it in the trash can and both the straps were torn
Don't remember how it happened
It was probably too tight
I was born in the dark, but it wasn't last night

Say, hey, sweet baby, I'm no fool
There's somethin' goin' on
And it just ain't good
Well, come on, baby
Well, let's talk straight
You've got one last chance and a choice to make

I was born in the dark, but it wasn't last night
You tell me that you love me
But I know it's just a lie
I was born in the dark, but it wasn't last night

Tell the truth now!
