Navy Wives

Navy wives, what'cha waiting for

There's cracks on the ceiling, the wallpaper's peeling

And a bottle breaks on the kitchen floor

She sweeps it to the side as she's walking out the door

So please, just take it easy

I know you've been drinking but I've been thinking

So please don't you cry

Don't let what I say make up your mind

It's nothing, if I can recall

But I have been known to be wrong

It's nothing, if I can recall

But I have been known to be wrong

I confess if you were right

But there's no way to show it, you're acting so tight

Don't tell me what you've learned

Cause there's nothing that you can say that I ain't already heard

So please just take it easy

I know you've been drinking, and not clearly thinking

So please don't you cry

Don't let them make up your mind

It's nothing if I can recall

But I have been known to be wrong

It's nothing if I can recall

But I have been known to be wrong

January feels like July, she leaves my scarf long out on the line

Wax paper skins looking dry,

Gets caught on the doors, she slowly walks by

As she reminded me time after time if you look back once the problem is mine

She reached the end of the line

Well you left everything in a mess

When then day is done it's still an empty nest

It's nothing if I can recall

But I have been known to be wrong

It's nothing if i can recall

But I have been known to be wrong

Well you left everything in a mess

When then day is done it's still an empty nest
