Lenny Pickett - When in Rome lyrics

Well I see you in the morning Putting on your pretty clothes And I watch you do your makeup Like they do in all those fashion shows Then you turn to me so that I can see If you put yourself together right Then you go away and you're gone all day But I know you're coming home tonight And when you're home Darling all you've got to be is you But when in Rome do as the Romans do Well it's alright if you're tired When your day is done You can see when you look at me You're not the only one It's a cold, cruel world for a working girl But you can't let them see you cry It's a fact of life, how a man and wife Work full time to just get by And when we're home All it's gonna be is me and you But when in Rome do as the Romans do I've done some strange things I never thought I'd do before But if the strain brings happiness More or less Then I don't mind masquerading With all those other fools I don't mind the games I'm playing Because I've learned the rules And when times are tough, I've got just enough If you're standing right by my side Darling more and more, I get hungry for All the ways you keep me satisfied Out on our own There ain't nothing we can't get through But when in Rome do as the Romans do So I don't mind masquerading With all those other fools I don't mind the games I'm playing Because I've learned the rules It doesn't matter when we're home, all alone All we've got to be is me and you Out on our own, there ain't nothing that we can't get through But when in Rome do as the Romans do Swing that hammer and break that stone (Like the Romans do) Push those bu*tons and answer that phone (Like the Romans do) Coffee in the morning and martinis at night (Like the Romans do) Everybody's working up a big appetite (Like the Romans do) When in Rome do like the Romans do (Like the Romans do) When in Rome do like the Romans do (Like the Romans do) When in Rome do like the Romans do (Like the Romans do)
