Date Night

I wrote this song a number of years ago. It represents pretty much how I deal with the ups and downs of everyday life. It's been recorded, but not quite the same as how I wrote it.



Date Night


I've been married to my woman for ten years
I’ve got a house full of kids and I’m losing my hair
My body just aint what it used to be
In the mirror there’s a fat, bald version of me
But I know everything’s gonna be alright

‘Cause it’s date night, date night
Me and my woman having private time
Date night, date night
Gonna lock the door and leave the world behind
Date night, date night
My baby and me we’re gonna bump and grind
Date night, date night
When we get together everything’s just fine

My son just got expelled from school
For cussing and fighting and breaking the rules
My six year old’s asking what oral sex is
What do I do in times like this

Date night, date night,
me and my woman having private time
Date night, date night
Gonna lock the door and leave the world behind
Date night, date night
My baby and me we're gonna bump and grind
Date night, date night
When we get together everything's just fine


I just got pulled over again
Lawman’s trying to get under my skin
But nothing he says don’t bother me
‘Cause tonight I know where I’m gonna be

Date night, date night
Me and my woman having private time....
