johnny hasn't come home lately

(vs)
johnny likes to think he's a ladies man
an' now he's found another lady to play
A fake Rolex and a cruise ship tan
Am i supposed look the other way

i sent a text to all my friends
now they're knockin' on my door
they've come here to recommend
a few changes to our decor...

(ch)
Johnny hasn't come home lately
I hear he found himself another pet
another poor sap who will call baby
for a ride in his old corvette
So the girls an' i are re-decoratin'
in a style that we call regret

(vs)
i'd pay good money to see his face
we really nailed his style
there's broken glass all over the place
an' his clothes are a burning pile

The bedroom walls are vivid red
with the floors all painted black
a mirror used to hang above our bed
well now you see those cracks

(ch)
Johnny hasn't come home lately
I hear he found himself another pet
another poor sap who will call baby
for a ride in his old corvette
So the girls an' i are re-decoratin'
in a style that we call regret

the living room smells like someone died
an' the bathroom could use some work
But, it goes real nice with the pack of lies
from a wannabee Romeo jerk

i know he's out there somewhere
i hope she was worth my time
While the girls an' I are finished here
We're wishin' we had saved the blinds

johnny hasn't come home lately
he had a blonde now he wants a brunette
well you might think i'm crazy
but honey, i ain't finished yet

Hope u all enjoy this cheers Neil and Co.!

Really enjoyed this one! All the parts are performed so well, and the arrangement / mix is excellent. The piano part at the end is especially wonderful. A good fun listen, and I really like the country-pop style.
