Well I was out a drinkin'
With a couple of friends of mine
When the bartender handed me the telephone

Says "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 "Oh won't you come home and talk to a stranger.
Cause 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 "Oh won't you come home and talk to a stranger.

Cause 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 "Oh won't you come home and talk to a stranger.
