Lyrics

Verse 1
Sanctimonious by day time
Sneaking around in the night
Losing respectability
Not a pretty sight

The guys all know you pretty well
They know how much you sell
I?ll tell you one thing right now baby
I?ll buy you for myself



Chorus
Coming home, after midnight
Coming home, you know it ain?t right
Coming home, you know I just might
Take you home, where you belong

Verse 2
Being a lady of the night
Seems to suit you well
No responsibilities
No self respect as well

The guys all know you pretty well
They know how much you sell
I?ll tell you one thing right now baby
I?ll buy you for myself


Chorus
