Thanks to me and my big mouth 
 Why did I do what I did 
 I shoulda known better than to lie 
 But it's too late and so tonight I'm 
 Sleepin' on the foldout sofa-bed 
  
 She wanted me to go and see her family 
 But I told her that I had to work 
 I never dreamed she'd get home so dang early 
 And she caught me cleanin' fish 
 Out on our back porch 
 And now I'm 
  
 Sleepin' on the foldout 
 Thanks to me and my big mouth

 I can't believe they call this thing a mattress 
 It's 2 a.m. and I'm wide awake 
 Lookin' back I shoulda just been honest 
 Instead of tellin' her the whole staff 
 Spent the day out on the lake 
 And now I'm 
  
 Sleepin' on the foldout 
 Thanks to me and my big mouth

 Yeah, I'm sleepin' on the foldout sofa-bed
