Lyrics

VERSE: (Man)
The boss asked me if I could work late
Honey I had to tell him Yes sir I guess I can
By the time I finished it was darn near eight
I tried to call you but you weren't in...

CHORUS:
(Woman) . . . In other words
You drove by the house and didn't see my car
So you thought you'd have a drink or two down at the bar
In other words
You got to talking with your friends
In other words
(spoken) Just don't let it happen again

(Man)(spoken) So where is the car Honey

VERSE: (Woman)
First of all I'm not the one to blame
I was far enough behind him
His brake lights weren't working the way he claimed
They really didn't have to tow me in . . .

CHORUS:
(Man) . . . In other words
It's that new stop sign that's been there for three weeks
The one he saw as plain as day the one you didn't see
In other words
You were putting make-up on again
In other words

(Man)(spoken) You ain't had both hands on the wheel since I can't remember . . .

BRIDGE:
(Both) . . . When we gonna stop telling these silly lies
Using alibis
I apologize
Before we head down the road to breaking up
Let's start making up
Enough's enough

CHORUS:
(Man) In other words
You're the last one that I'd ever want to hurt
It's time for a little honesty
(Woman) Baby that's for sure
(Both) In other words
Let's get back to what's tried and true
(Man) Back when it was you for me
(Woman) And me for you
(Both) In other words
I still love you
