You've got her in your pocket

And there's no way out now

Put it in the safe and lock it

'cause it's at home sweet home

Nobody ever told you that it was the wrong way

To trick a woman, make her feel she did it her way

And you'll be there if she ever feels blue

And you'll be there when she finds someone new

What to do

Well you know

You keep her in your pocket

Where there's no way out now

Put it in a safe a lock it

'cause it's home sweet home

The smile on your face made her think she had the right one

Then she thought she was sure

By the way you two could have fun

But now she might leave

Like she's threatened before

Grab hold of her fast

Before her feet leave the floor

And she's out the door

'cause you want

You keep her in your pocket

Where there's no way out now

Put it in a safe a lock it

'cause it's home sweet home

And in your own mind

You know you're lucky just to know her

And in the beginning all you wanted was to show her

But now you're scared

You think she's running away

You search in your hand for something clever to say

Don't go away

'cause I want

To keep you in my pocket

Where there's no way out now

Put it in a safe a lock it

'cause it's home sweet home
