(Lyle Lovett and Billy Hill)

Honey bring me the paper

And pour me a beer

And turn on the TV

And sweep up over here

You tell me you love me

To put off my blues

But what do you do

When it quits being new



Now you be home for supper

And don't slam that door

And you better be a sober man

Or I'll give you what for

You tell me you love me

To put off my blues

But what do you do

When it quits being new



We used to not worry about nothing

We used to would laugh and play

But now when we look at each other

We never have nothing to say



Except for you know well she says

You could take me to dinner

And you could buy me some clothes

If you make all that money man

Make damn sure it shows

You could tell me you love me

To put off my blues

But what do you do

When it quits being new



And he says you could put on some makeup

And you could pile up your hair

And at least try to do something

With what you've got there

You could tell me you love me

To put off my blues

But what do you do

Say what do you do



When it

What do you do when it

Say what do you do when it



Say well

Hi there

What's your

My name is

And my wife is at the PT and

I had to

You know we could

I buy you

Is that a Scotch and so a

What will it be

Your place

Or a place to



Say man

What do you think you

See I'm not that kind of

Affair is fair

And right is

Right around the corner

Just a block or

So you know come morning

You'll have to leave

Everything to me



What do you do

Say what do you do

And thatc12
