Hugh X. Lewis - You're Not Here To Scold Me lyrics

(You're not here to scold me anymore) I wipe my shoes when I come through the door and I quit dropping ashes on the floor Every day I tidy up our room I've become an expert with the broom I'm not with the guys night after night I don't stay out no more till broad day light I don't do anything I did before oh but you're not here to scold me anymore The silly little fights we had nobody understood When I was bad then you got mad but even that was good I changed a lot why I don't even snore oh but you're not here to scold me anymore [ strings ] My clothes I used to just throw down I now hang up myself My razor blades and grooving aids I put back in the shelf And I threw away that silly hat I wore oh but you're not here to scold me anymore
