Won't You Come Home (And Talk To A Stranger)

(Wayne Kemp)



Well, I was out a drinkin'

With a couple of friends of mine

When the bartender handed me the telephone

Said, ''There's a wife on the line.''



I told her I was just a drinkin'

With a couple of buddies I knew

She told me in a few short words

Just a what she wanted me to do.



She said, ''Won't you come home and talk to a stranger

You might even make yourself a friend.''

She said, ''Won't you come home and talk to a stranger

It's the only place in days you haven't been.''

Well, I sat there about an hour

Talkin' with the rest of the guys

When she walked through that front door

She had, get home in her eyes.



She said, ''You've danced and talked

With every woman in town but me

And if you'd just come around the house

You might like my company.''



She said, ''Won't you come home and talk to a stranger

You might even make yourself a friend.''

She said, ''Won't you come home and talk to a stranger

It's the only place in days you haven't been.''



She said, ''Won't you come home and talk to a stranger

You might even make yourself a friend.''

She said, ''Won't you come home and talk to a stranger

It's the only place in days you haven't been.''...
