Lyrics


I could be a slave
For the rest of my life
As long as I know
That you'd be my wife


No matter what you do
Can't hide my love for you


You treat me bad, girl
I won't cry or moan
I'll work real hard
Every day
And bring my gold back home
Oh, I don't care how you treat me
I don't care how you treat me


Just as long as I know that you're gonna come home eventually, darling
'Cause you know that I love you
Always by my side
It is wonderful
Kiss me tightly
Lovey dovey
Goo-goo
Beep beep
And la la


No matter what you do
Can't hide my love for you


You stay out late, girl
I won't cry, I won't cry
Tell me that I'm stupid
I like my women cruel
Oh, I don't care how you treat me
I don't care how you treat me


As long as you come home eventually
Bring home a TV dinner
TV Guide
We'll eat it


FZ: Then you eat it, the TV dinner or something that you munch on.
Ray: Then we'll eat it.
FZ: Showmanship is great, isn't it, kids? The suspense that builds up when you wonder when we're gonna start playing again . . .
Ray: This is . . .
FZ: What the heck are they gonna do next? It's really exciting, isn't it?


Hold it
On second thought I don't need you anymore
'Cause there's a girl
Long time ago
That deep in my heart there's this story untold . . .


In my heart
There's a story untold
Of a girl who left me standing
Standing in the cold
And since she went away
I ain't seen a happy day


Well, I hope and I pray
She'll hear my plea
And maybe some day
She'll come back home to me
For here in my heart
There's a story untold


After all was said and done
You said I was the one
Well, darling
I found I was wrong
You fooled me from the start
You said we'd never part
You made a fool of me
And then you broke my heart


Well, I hope and I pray
She'll hear my plea
And maybe some day
She'll come back home to me
For here in my heart
There's a story untold


After all was said and done
You said I was the one
Well, darling
I found I was wrong
You fooled me from the start
You said we'd never part
You made a fool of me
And then you broke my heart


Well, I hope and I pray
You'll hear my plea
And maybe some day
Come back home to me
For here in my heart
There's a story untold
Story
Story untold


No matter what you do
Can't hide my love for you


You treat me bad, girl
I won't cry, no, I won't moan
I'll work really hard
For the rest of my life
To bring everything back home, yeah
I don't care how you treat me
I don't care how you treat me
Zoom . . .
Zoom . . .
