In the back room (in the back room)

In the back room (in the back room)

I waited for you (waited for you)

Ya waited for me (waited for me)

Rain came down, pitter-pat

Say, 'What'd you think, it's raining outside?'

You said, "So what"

You turned the record player on

Had a smoke, stood up

Walked across to the john

In a cloud of mist, couldn't resist

A kitty stepped into the hall

An' she rapped the door

Found the key in the letter box

She turned the door

Walked into the room

And said, 'What's goin' on?'

'I just got back from down the road

I gotta couple a-bottles a-wine

Somethin' to turn you on'

What-a ya think of that?

(In the back room)

(In the back room)

I said, 'Sit down cat, pull up a seat

You're soakin' wet'

Take off your coat n' hat

Wipe your feet on the mat

In the back room (in the back room)

In the back room (in the back room)

I waited for you (waited for you)

Ya waited for me (waited for me)

I said, 'What time is it, Charlie

Where did we go all day?"

We seem to get no where and do nothin'

But sit lookin' at each other

He said, 'I know'

'I been doin' the same thing for weeks'

I look at the clock

And all of a sudden I'm hypnotized

It speaks to me, it goes

'Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock'

Ah-huh

The kitty said

'I don't know what you guys do

But I been workin' so hard, lately

That I can just only just fall asleep in bed'

So he played some more sounds

And grooved awhile

Somebody brought out some

Cherry wine, cherry wine

And we talked about what was goin' on

In the music world, and other things

A-ha-ha-ha, ha-ha

The rain outside came down

Like it came never before

Down it came, down it came, rain rain rain
