lyrics

when my baby brought me home I thought we'd settle down
but she was leaving me alone and going out on the town
stuck on my own, I couldn't move an inch
oh lord what I would do to have her sitting on my bench
but someone up above heard me, granted me my wish

cause lately every night she's been lovin up on me
oh lord sent me an angel and she's tickling my keys
she hits me in the spots that make me sing and shout
oh sweet Jesus that's what I'm talking about!
my baby's come home and she's not going out

we don't need a smoky barroom
and we don't need a crowd for a good time Saturday night
cause we've been making music in the bedroom
and the world outside might be a mess
but everything in here is alright

oh, the lord made the kingdom and he's handed me the keys
in the form of sweet love and sweet melodies
she's hitting me with the ragtime, the boogie and the stride
she's hammering my strings, she's got my top up open wide
my lonely days are done I got my baby right by my side

we don't need a smoky barroom
and we don't need a crowd for a good time Saturday night
cause we've been making music in the bedroom
and the world outside might be a mess
but everything in here is alright
