Outage Wife's Lament (Key of B-flat)

Outage came to Plant Hatch-land...
let my husband go!
Hours SO long, I don't understand!
Let my husband go!
 
REFRAIN:
Come home, come home!
Way down in Plant Hatch-land,
tell Uncle George to
let my husband go!
 
Leaves our house 'ere dawn's early light.
Let my husband go!
He returns with no sun in sight...
let my husband go!
 
REFRAIN
 
Six days a week, twelve hours a day (if he's lucky)...
let my husband go!
He's not on nights!  Hooray!  Hooray!  (Nights are yucky!)
Let my husband go!
 
REFRAIN
 
Recirc motor!  Critical path!
Let my husband go!
Time is money!  Manager's wrath!
Let my husband go!
 
REFRAIN
 
A bonus check at outage end (HALLELUJAH!)!
Let my husband go!
I hope my song does not offend! ('Scuse me, will ya?)
Let my husband go!

Come home!  COME HOME!
Tell Uncle George, way down in
Plant Hatch-land....
to let
my
husband
go!
