Grounded

(Vs)

Well it all started last Saturday night

Got home a little too late and we had a little fight

Was playin poker with the boys and I lost track of time

but now this weekend I'm payin for that crime

(Ch)

I'm grounded, can't go nowhere

Grounded, it just isn't fair

I don't understand, I'm a grown man

but I'm grounded, can't go nowhere

(Vs)

I put up a fight and pleaded my case

but she counted my infractions and put me in my place

She said "Last time's the last time and the very last straw"

"You're staying home, I'm bringing down the law"

(Ch)

I'm grounded, can't go nowhere

Grounded, it just isn't fair

I don't understand, I'm a grown man

but I'm grounded, can't go nowhere

(Bridge)

Yesterday I was extra good

Doin everything she thought I should

I was hoping to get some leniency

but there's still no poker tonight for me

(Ch)

I'm grounded, can't go nowhere

Grounded, it just isn't fair

I don't understand, I'm a grown man

but I'm grounded, can't go nowhere
