I iron and I sew as I watch the late show
But something moist keeps getting in my eyes
He called and said don't wait, he'd be working late
And so another lonely night goes by

Meanwhile down at Joe's the music's playing
I can almost see him there holding her so tight
Meanwhile here at home the baby's crying
All in all it's just another night

I polish and I clean, then read a magazine
It's time for bed, he'll soon be slipping in
Tomorrow he will be sweet and kind to me
He'll love me until he works late again

Meanwhile down at Joe's the music's playing
I can almost see him there holding her so tight
Meanwhile here at home the baby's crying
All in all it's just another night
