Tim O'brien - Gonna Try To Make Her Stay lyrics

(*Tim O'Brien, Jimmy Stewart) Gonna wash the dishes and scrub the floor* All kinds of things I never did before I thought she wasn't comin home no more But she called me up today She told me how to gather up her stuff She's comin over later to pick it up She borrowed her boyfriend's pickup truck But I'm gonna try to make her stay [Chorus:] My baby's comin back today I'm gonna try to make her stay It's ten o'clock now and I've got til four When she comes walkin through that door She'll forget about him, she'll want me more I'm gonna try to make her stay My cash is short and my credit's low I guess I'll go to the goodwill store To get a new suit of pre-owned clothes I want to look my best today Evidently I'm quite a slob It's a little late now to get that job But I'd beg, I'd borrow, maybe even rob If I could make her come back to stay Chorus Bridge: When she told me she was leavin I guess I did not quite believe If she tells me now I'm dreamin That's when I'll get down on my knees and say please Just give me one more chance To try to save our sweet romance I'd even tell her I could learn to dance I'm gonna try to make her stay It's ten o'clock now and I've got til four When she comes walkin through that door She'll forget about him, she'll want me more I'm gonna try to make her stay
