Why Can't You Bring Me Home
Composer(s): Wes Farrell; Joel Hirschhorn; Al Kasha
Performer(s): Jay & The Americans



Why do we always meet on the edge of town?
Why do we have to wait till the sun goes down?
Where do you live and why don't you even give me a place to go?

Chorus:
Come on baby, why can't you bring me
Baby baby, why can't you bring me
Come on baby, why can't you bring me home?

Baby baby, why can't you bring me home?

I'll ask around but nobody knows for sure
But they agree that your folks are mighty rude
Are you ashamed of the way you were raised
And that's why it stays unknown?

(chorus)

You may not wear such pretty clothes
But when you're in my arms, you love like a rose

What do I care if I see a broken chair?
Why do I need the best kind of silverware?
All that I need to make me complete is your tender love alone

(chorus)
