Well, I've been beatin' the bushes all week long
Can't seem to save a dollar
Apartment's empty, I'm all alone
Won't you listen to a grown man holler?
The boss man's dead on my case
Keep
your
mind
on
the
job
and
stay
busy
My mind's been on his secretary
Lord have mercy, make ya dizzy
Why won't you take me home?
Baby, why won't you take me home?
Just tell me and I'll get back to fishin'
I ain't gonna go for no bait and switchin'
Why won't you take me home?
Every man wants his secretary
The woman of his dreams
Monday through Friday, nine to five
She's all over me
We get to work and she starts flirtin'
Loves to play her game
I saw her out on Saturday night
She didn't seem to know my name
Tuesday, I'm ready to scream
Wednesday, I'm a little less mean
Thursday, I'm ready for sin
Friday night, let the games begin
Why won't you take me home?
Baby, why won't you take me home?
I been stuck in the middle far too long
Hot diggity dog, let's have some fun
Why won't you take me home?
Why won't you take me home?
Baby, why won't you take me home?
Just tell me and I'll get back to fishin'
I ain't gonna go for no bait and switchin'
Why won't you take me home?
Why won't you take me home?
Baby, why won't you take me home?
I been stuck in the middle far too long
Hot diggity dog, let's have some fun
Why won't you take me home?
Why won't you take me home?
Baby, why won't you take me home?
Just tell me and I'll get back to fishin'
I ain't gonna go for no bait and switchin'
Why won't you take me home?
