Lyrics
VERSE1
I've got the key to my girlfriend's front door lock
I been working all day, it's half past five o'clock
Walk up to her door, let myself in, de ja vus all over again
She ain't here and I'm feelin' them same old blues
CHORUS1
I'm home alone, LATCH KEY LOVER BLUES
Ain't seen my honey since Sunday afternoon
She's purty as a peach, sweet as wine, problem is she's workin' 'til nine
I'm home alone, LATCH KEY LOVER BLUES
VERSE2 [TALKING]
Man, what am I gonna do 'til she gets home? Ain't nothin' but re-runs' on the cable TV. I've read the newspaper three times, already. Ain't hungry. It's too early to go bed. I just can't get that woman off my mind.
CHORUS2
I'm home alone, LATCH KEY LOVER BLUES
Ain't seen my honey since Sunday afternoon
She's purty as a peach, wish she'd get off early sometime
I'm home alone, LATCH KEY LOVER BLUES
BRIDGE
I'm a red blooded boy, she's dynamite. What more can I say?
I can't wait 'til she gets home, and loves these blues away... Hey, hey...
CHORUS3
I'm home alone, LATCH KEY LOVER BLUES
Ain't seen my honey since Sunday afternoon
She's purty as a peach, sweet as wine, hormones workin' overtime
I'm home alone, LATCH KEY LOVER BLUES
TAG
I'm home alone, LATCH KEY LOVER BLUES
[GIRLFRIEND'S VOICE: Honey, I'm Home!]
Heh, heh, heh...
