[ duet with Don Rich ]

I'm gonna roll out the red carpet when you come home

I'm gonna treat you like a VIP I feel like you ain't never known

Gonna have a brass band at the station gonna let 'em know what the united nation

I'm a gonna roll out the red carpet when you come home



Well I think I hear old 99 round in the bend

And I know it won't be long until you're in my arms again

I'm a gonna love you hug and kiss you gonna let you know how much I miss you

I'm a gonna roll out the red carpet when you come home

I'm gonna roll out the red carpet...

[ guitar ]

Well I worn out my best shoes walking the floor

And I won't sleep a wink till you knock on my door

Since I got a word that you was a comin' the clock on the wall is about stop runnin'

I'm a gonna roll out the red carpet when you come home

I'm gonna roll out the red carpet...
