[Chorus]
Two sides to every story, we can straighten this out if we'll take time
Two sides to every story, you tell yours and I tell mine
[Verse 1]
Well, where were you last night when I came home?
When I came in, you were out and gone
Well, I waited up 'til after two then I went downtown to look for you
So how's about tellin' me where you were at?
Well me and the boys stopped off for a drink or two
(Now ain't you a pretty thing)
Well we got to drinkin' and I guess that time just flew
Well, the time must've flown for you alright
'Cause I thought you're gonna stay out all night
And I told myself I ain't puttin' up with that
[Chorus]
There's always two sides to every story, we can straighten this out if we'll take time
Two sides to every story, you tell yours and I tell mine
[Verse 2]
You said you went downtown to look for me
Did you have to dress up fancy as could be?
You know I never leave the house in old, tacky clothes lookin' like slut
And I's downtown just to look in my best for you
Now I'm not accusin' you of doin' wrong
But that's awful late for you to be out and gone
Now look who's talkin' 'bout bein' late, I went about to sit and wait
Why you were at that when with no tellin' who
[Chorus]
There's always two sides to every story, we can straighten this out if we'll take time
Two sides to every story, you tell yours and I tell mine
There's always two sides to every story, we can straighten this out if we'll take time
Two sides to every story, you tell yours and I tell mine
There's always...
Two sides to every story, we can straighten this out if we'll take time
Two sides to every story, you tell yours and I tell mine
[Verse 1]
Well, where were you last night when I came home?
When I came in, you were out and gone
Well, I waited up 'til after two then I went downtown to look for you
So how's about tellin' me where you were at?
Well me and the boys stopped off for a drink or two
(Now ain't you a pretty thing)
Well we got to drinkin' and I guess that time just flew
Well, the time must've flown for you alright
'Cause I thought you're gonna stay out all night
And I told myself I ain't puttin' up with that
[Chorus]
There's always two sides to every story, we can straighten this out if we'll take time
Two sides to every story, you tell yours and I tell mine
[Verse 2]
You said you went downtown to look for me
Did you have to dress up fancy as could be?
You know I never leave the house in old, tacky clothes lookin' like slut
And I's downtown just to look in my best for you
Now I'm not accusin' you of doin' wrong
But that's awful late for you to be out and gone
Now look who's talkin' 'bout bein' late, I went about to sit and wait
Why you were at that when with no tellin' who
[Chorus]
There's always two sides to every story, we can straighten this out if we'll take time
Two sides to every story, you tell yours and I tell mine
There's always two sides to every story, we can straighten this out if we'll take time
Two sides to every story, you tell yours and I tell mine
There's always...
