Lyrics
Hey, little girl,
comb your hair,
fix your makeup, soon he will open the door.
(Gm7)Don't think because there's a ring on your finger you needn't try anymore.
(C9)For (Cm7)wives should (F7)always (Am7)be lovers,
(D7)too. (Ebmaj7)Run to his arms the moment (D7sus)he comes home to (D7)you.
I'm (Dbmaj7)warning (C7sus)you.
(Fm7)Day after day there are girls at the office and men will always be men.
(Gm7)Don't send him off with your hair still in curlers,
you may not see him again.
(C9)For (Cm7)wives should (F7)always (Am7)be lovers,
(D7)too. (Ebmaj7)Run to his arms the moment (D7sus)he comes home to (D7)you.
He's (Dbmaj7)always (C7sus)here.
(Fm7)Hey, little girl,
better wear something pretty,
something you'd (Bb9)wear to (Eb6)go to the city;
(Edim7)And (Fm7)dim all the lights,
pour the wine,
start the music,
time to get (Bb9)ready for (Eb6)love.
Oh, (Fm7)time to get (Bb9)ready,
(Fm7)time to get (Bb9)ready,
(Fm7)time to get (Bb9)ready for (Eb6)love.
