Cast Iron Skillet Lyrics

Well I got home late one night

She had a skillet in her hand ready to fight

She said Where the hell have you been

I said Down at the bar with some of my friends

She said What's the matter you couldn't call

I said I lost track of time I was havin' a ball

Three hours later I woke up on the floor

With a knot on my head and a hole in the door

Well a cast iron skillet it'll open your eyes

You'll see much clearer you'll apologize

You'll walk softly and toe the line

'Cause buddy she knows you gotta sleep sometime

Well about a year later without no fear

Had a couple of shots and a case of beer

One thing led to another...

The last thing I heard was You stupid mother...!

Well a cast iron skillet it'll open your eyes

You'll see much clearer you'll apologize

You'll walk softly and toe the line

'Cause buddy she knows you gotta sleep sometime

When I woke up to my surprise

Had three broken ribs and two black eyes

Hangin' on the wall for all to see

Was a cast iron skillet above a picture of me

Well a cast iron skillet it'll open your eyes

You'll see much clearer you'll apologize

You'll walk softly and toe the line

'Cause buddy she knows you gotta sleep sometime

Well a cast iron skillet it'll open your eyes

You'll see much clearer you'll apologize

You'll walk softly and toe the line

'Cause buddy she knows you gotta sleep sometime

Well a cast iron skillet it'll change your ways

You'll be sorry 'bout them long bar stays

You'll tread lightly or you'll pay the price

'Cause that cast iron skillet don't need swingin' twice

Well a cast iron skillet it'll open your eyes

You'll see much clearer you'll apologize

You'll walk softly and toe the line

'Cause buddy she knows you gotta sleep sometime
