I've been waiting up early
in the wee wee hours
Waiting for you to come home
Lately seven days out of every week
I've been waiting up here alone
I got grey hair in my head
I even lost twenty -five pounds
I'll be damned if I lose any more
while I'm running around
Yeah, half -stepping, baby
Letting your good thing
get away
What you're doin' in April now
You can keep on doin'
it in May
While you're out there with my flame
Puttin' it to some other girl's fire
You are slowly but surely landing
Letting your own life die
A woman can only take so much
And steal a lover, man
If you can't take care of your homework
I'll find someone who can
You're here slipping, baby
Leav ing your homework
undone
Keep on doin' what you're doin'
Don't think that I ain't gonna be
out and havin' my fun
Yeah
You're one third of the man
that you once used to be
And that's just not enough to satisfy me
I'm so tired of what you've
been putting down
I ain't gonna take much more
of your running around
You're out running the streets
But you should be taking care
of your home first
And everything else
You can take it for what it's worth
You're half -deaf and horny
You know you can't get away
What you've done in April, John
You might as well keep on doing it in May
Oh, you're half -deaf and horny
Even your homework undone
Keep on doing what you do
Don't think that I ain't gonna
go on out
and have me some fun
Oh, you're half -steppin',
half -steppin'
Oh, you're half -steppin'
