Where you been where you been it's the same old question again

What's the use baby what's the use they ain't never gonna turn us loose

You got dirt all over your face and your lipstick is way out of place

Oh we gonna tell 'em what we tell 'em every time before



They won't leave us alone they want us to come home

We been busy makin' merries and pickin' wild mountain berries

We're pickin' wild mountain berries that's our excuse every time

We've been busy makin' merries and pickin' wild mountain berries

Conway I don't know Loretta I don't know

If I can keep honey from lettin' it show

What's our plan tell me what's our plan

Now you know they won't understand

If my hair is a drippin' wet and my clothes are soakin' wet

And we didn't go skinny dippin' in a cement pond

You're my baby and you're my man

And though your hair is sure gettin' to be a mess

And there ain't no berries in your bucket

Now we'll explain it honey as best as we can

They won't leave us alone...
