  			C                C7 
Sometimes at the end of the day 
         F 
Before I head home I make a stop along the way 
       C                             Em                      Dm 
Have a couple of drinks wait for the five o'clock rush to go by 
G7         C                 C7 
And almost always there's a lady 
            F                              D7 
Oh and it's so hard when she starts coming on 
                 C           F         G7         C 
But I back it on up turn it around and take it on home 
  
                     C7 
Sometimes I've gotta go out of town  
        F 
I'll be gone for couple of days 
         C                    Em                 Dm 
And this buddy of mine he's a hound in the first degree 
G7         C                  C7 
And almost always there's the ladies 
             F                            D7 
And it ain't easy when you're out and all alone 
                 C          F          G7         C 
But I back it on up turn it around and take it on home 
  

                  C7     F                   G7 
I take it on home to the woman who sticks by me 
          C     Em           Am              D7 
Cause I believe she'd do the same if she was me 
G7             C         C7       F   G7         C 
And I wouldn't know where to turn to  if she was gone 
Am               C       C7               F            C 
And when I ain't working I don't hang out I take it on home 
G7           C           F         G7         F 
I back it on up turn it around and take it on home
