Housewife

Leon Russell, Dyan Diamond, Kim Fowley

[Verse 1]
Well you're stranded in the kitchen
The kids are gone to school
It's oh so hard to follow all the rules
The children got their friends, your husband's playing cards
And all that housework seems so hard

Forgotten in the bedroom as you listen to him sleep
You lay down in the night light crying
Too scared to take a lover
Too much in love to cheat
And you think about your life out on the street

[Chorus]
Well the housewife is a hard life
Long days and lonely nights
Yes a housewife is a hard life
Darling I'm thinking of you tonight

[Bridge]
What about the dream that never never will come true
Darling no one knows that special person that's trapped inside of you

[Verse 2]
You're waiting for tomorrow, you hope he'll notice you
And all the special little things you do for him
'Cause all you really ask is some real security
And a honeymoon that never ends
Remember when we were friends

But it seems he's always working or out there with the boys
You're always sitting home without a choice
The kids are having nightmares that daddy's gone away
So you send them down to Grandma's house to stay

[Chorus - Outro]
Well the housewife is a hard life
Long days and long and lonely nights
Yes a housewife is a hard life
But I'm thinking of you tonight
As you sit there listening
I'm thinking of you tonight
