Baby left town week before last
She slapped me on the wrist with her boarding pass
She said "You wait!"
I got to wait
I won't be seeing my baby for almost fourteen days
Well the world dumbs down when a man gets bored
You can guarantee he won't invent a new chore
Like a moth to a flame, man to the web
Little post-it stickers said "do it, you're dead!"
You got to wait
I got to wait
I haven't seen my baby for almost fourteen days
Cable TV with it's late night fare
Fashion magazines selling women's underwear
A dangerous hour for a man in the shower
who's got to wait
Baby came home on the fourteenth day
Said "what did you do when I was away?"
"Baby I've been burnin' like a man on fire"
She said "take a cold shower lover boy, I am too tired
You got to wait"
I've got to wait
I haven't seen my baby for almost fourteen days
