Maybe far away
or maybe real nearby
He may be pourin' her coffee
She may be straightenin' his tie
Maybe in a house
all hidden by a hill
She's sittin' playin' piano
He's sittin' payin' a bill
Betcha they're young
Betcha they're smart
Bet they collect things
like ashtrays and art
Betcha they're good
Why shouldn't they be
Their one mistake
was givin' up me
So maybe now it's time
And maybe when I wake
They'll be there callin' me
baby maybe
Betcha he reads
Betcha she sews
Maybe she's made me
a closet of clothes
Maybe they're strict
As straight as a line
Don't really care
As long as they're mine
So maybe now this prayer's
the last one of it's kind
Won't you please come
get your baby maybe
