"I Can't Go Home Like This" lyrics

"I Can't Go Home Like This"

There's too much lipstick on my collar
I'm spent down to my last whole dollar
Too late now to gripe and holler
'Cause I can't go home like this

My tongue gets so heavy when I try to talk
My legs turn to jelly when I try to walk
It's closing time but I'll have to balk
I just can't go home like this

Well my baby told me when I left home
She said I'll give you your last warning
You better be home by a quarter to eight
And I don't mean tomorrow morning

My eyes are red, my head's in a spin
Look what an awful shape I'm in
I done slipped up and I've done it again
I can't go home like this

Well my baby told me when I left home
She said I'll give you your last warning
You better be home by a quarter to eight
And I don't mean tomorrow morning

Well my eyes are red, my head's in a spin
Look what an awful shape I'm in
I done slipped up and I've done it again
I can't go home like this

I'm as loose as a goose and high as a kite
Ain't it a shame, ain't I a sight
I guess I'll have to sleep in the attic tonight
'Cause I can't go home like this
