Lyrics

It?s been a long, long hard week
Workin? tryin? to make all those ends meet
Every night we?ve been dead on our feet
And fell asleep watchin? Must See TV.

There was you?re ma?s appendicitis and little Julie?s recital,
Between dinner and homework, the bills and the mortgage,
Taxes and the plumber, feels like we?ve been short-changed
The car broke down in that heavy rain
And it?s a miracle that we survived
So let?s celebrate that we?re alive?

Baby let?s just stay in tonight, I?ll order pizza and light a fire,
Some Charlie Rich and a bottle of good red wine,
Slow dancin? in the candlelight.
We could go out, get a little wild
The way you?re lookin? there?s only one thing on my mind
Don?t need ta honky-tonk to have us a real good time
So baby, let?s stay in tonight
Baby, let?s stay in tonight
Honey, let?s stay in

The kids are with my mother.
Seems like months since we?ve been alone together,
I saw your face in the livin? room mirror,
And I fell in love all over again.

And I don?t wanna share you with anyone else out there.
So let?s turn off the phones, turn down the lights,
Deadbolt the doors and close all the blinds,
Don?t wanna waste this precious time,
?Cause we?re here and we?re alive,
So let?s celebrate that we survived.

Baby let?s just stay in tonight, I?ll order pizza and light a fire,
Some Charlie Rich and a bottle of good red wine,
Slow dancin? in the candlelight.
We could go out, get a little wild
The way you?re lookin? there?s only one thing on my mind
Don?t need ta honky-tonk to have us a real good time
So baby, let?s stay in tonight
Baby, let?s stay in tonight
Honey, let?s stay in tonight
Baby, let?s stay in tonight
Honey, let?s stay in.
