Patty Griffin - I Smell A Rat lyrics

rate me

<br>

I think I smell a rat in my house, baby I believe you got just too late<br>

Aw, I smell a rat, I smell a rat in my house, honey, I think you walkin' 'round too late<br>

You know I need a rat in my house like this now, just like I need a hole in my head<br>

<br>

You cry baby you afraid at night, you say you can't stay home all alone<br>

Oh you said you afraid, afraid to stay home at night, you say you didn't want to be home alone<br>

Oh, but I can smell a rat in the time I get back, and all, and all you do is gonna make me moan<br>

<br>

You got my backdoor wide open, baby you say you're supposed to be afraid<br>

You got my backdoor wide open, and you tell me you're supposed to be afraid<br>

You know the last time I slept with it opened, you know 'was so cold I almost lost my head<br>

<br>

Sometime I think you're foolin' me baby, and I do believe it's just drivin' me around<br>

Sometime I think you're foolin' me baby, honey I think you're just drivin' me around<br>

Why don't you leave me alone woman, you know I think there's another women I can go,<br>

I can be found<br>

<br>

I think that you have it to explain. honey I'm not that hard to understand<br>

Did you ever try to sit down and explain, I am not that hard to understand<br>

You will be sleeping with the backdoor open, baby or with another man<br>

<br>

You're so good, I don't believe I wanna leave you alone<br>

Oh you're so sweet to me, I don't believe, I can leave you alone<br>

Stayin', and peepin' like you got a woman, and try to make me, all happy<br>

<br>
