Well, your office called to say you wouldn't be long. Since when did your boss get a jukebox of his own? When I called to see how long you'd be they said you'd been long gone You're headed right in the wrong direction if you wanna come home. Well, you're leaving clues that any ole fool can see. Honey, you're the fool if you think your foolin' me. If you wanna go just let me know, we can sure enough get it all. You're headed right in the wrong direction if you wanna come home. [Chorus] If you want to keep your home you better straighten up your act. 'Cause honey, I can love you, I can even help you pack. If you turn around, and come home now, I just might not be gone. You're headed right in the wrong direction honey, if you wanna come home. Well, your headed right in the wrong direction honey, if you wanna come home..
