A conversation caught my ear I wish I hadn't heard

My little boy said listen spot but don't you bark a word

Daddy's got a girl friend but he can't let mommy know

And night spot is when he's not here I bet that's where he goes

But listen spot I saw him wash the lipstick from his shirt

Then he told mom the car broke down and it was grease and dirt

But only lips can make red prints shake like an engine's blow

But listen spot that can't tell mom he don't want her to know

[ steel ]

So listen spot don't even bark it's time we got to sleep

We said our prayers and we prayed hard for daddy not to cheat

Let's play like it's a bond we found and there it is tonight

But listen spot don't dig it up for everyone with cry
