Mary came home with smoke in her hair
and her stockings on crooked, but she didn't care
Feet tripping heavy, she climbed up the stairs
Don't you get between her and that easy chairThe day is too harsh
The night is too long
The band on the stage never played her song
Drinks were just wet
She got caught in a net
And she never had an answer to the letter she sent
Donna came home with a bag from the store
with her wallet a little lighter than it was before
She spent all she had and a few pennies more
She'll be looking good walking through an open doorThe day is too harsh
The night is too long
The band on the stage never played her song
Drinks were just wet
She got caught in a net
And she never had an answer to the letter she sentChasing after the night
Everything better by morning lightJulie came home with sand in her shoe
And the sun on her skin felt like good news
She's not sure just yet
She's starting to grove
Don't you come around here with yesterday's blues
The day is too harsh
The night is too long
The band on the stage finally played along
Drinks were all wet
She got caught in a net
And she never had an answer to the letter she sentSometimes you never get an answer to the letter you send
And she never had an answer to the letter she sent
