You wake up in the morning And you're not feeling quite the same You feel a gentle hand upon you But you seem to have forgotten her name You put on your clothes You're heading home You're hoping and praying you won't be all alone Chorus: When you get there When you get there You haven't had a chance to think About explaining where you slept till noon You can't say you were working all night Cause it's Sunday afternoon The truth is too hard You'll never come back ' Cause a one night stand is not worth the attack Chorus: When you get there When you get there You're walking up to our front door As my face comes into view You think you've got a pretty good lie You say you slept at Mary Lou's You open the door You start telling lies But then from the hall You hear Mary Lou cry Chorus: When you get there When you get there When you get there When you get there
