    Wouldn't you know it? I wrote this song about fathers who expend a great deal of energy trying to provide for their families, while from the point of view of the family, all they see is that he's not spending quality time with them. An excellent message, yet, I found myself doing the same thing...

    Story Behind the Song
    Wouldn't you know it? I wrote this song about fathers who expend a great deal of energy trying to provide for their families, while from the point of view of the family, all they see is that he's not spending quality time with them. An excellent message, yet, I found myself doing the same thing...

    Lyrics
    O' knock off at five, meet the broker at six
    You're barely alive, but a good name really sticks
    Appointments 'til nine and sometimes ten
    Hope the family's fine, guess I'll be home late again

    Save a buck to make a dime. With a little luck you'll be a hit this time
    Be with the right folks. Get a bigger car
    The life of the party an' your kids are wonderin' who you are

    The wife's uptight, another fight
    The same options still remain
    a drink or a toke should ease the pain

    I'm doin' it all for you. Can't you see?
    That's how I show love to you, it's not for me
    That's what I keep sayin' but you never seem to hear
    Why is it that you never seem to hear?
