Lyrics:

I come home from work the other night I was dog tired as I could be
I saw a grey sodora up where my hat oughta be
Now a man I'm not the jealous type but it sure appears to me
That when I come home I oughta see my hat where my hat oughta be

Suspicion suspicion it's got it's hold on me
When that green-eyed monster gets you he'll never set you free

Well like the other morning I left the house started to laugh and sing
Got about half way down to work till I got to thinkin' about something
So I doubled back home and I opened the door just to see if I got a letter
I'm not the least bit jealous you know me man I know better

I kinda tippy toed in you know just to see what I could see
I saw a great big black cigar where my pipe oughta be
Now on the breakfast table there was bacon and eggs and toast and orange peel
When I got up my wife gave me a dish of cold oatmeal

Suspicion suspicion it's got it's hold on me
When that green-eyed monster gets you he'll never set you free

Well I've been thinkin' about it lately with these prices the way they go
How come it is we eat so much and our grocery bill's so low
Oh understand I'm not complainin' I should be filled with joy
But I just got to thinkin' bout that good lookin' grocery boy

So just in case I had me a clue I thought I'd set a trap
Well I come home unexpectedly he's settlin' in my wife's lap
She smiled at me a sickly smile and whatta you think she said
Look honey I caught a burglar and that grocery boy dropped dead

Suspicion suspicion it's got it's hold on me
When that green-eyed monster gets you he'll never set you free

My wife says I'm jealous but you know I ain't of course
You know if I come home with a hair on my coat I gotta show her the horse
But like the other morning she got up and left the house long about five
Said she felt like talkin' a walk in the hills just felt good to be alive

Well I didn't give that very much thought but I did notice just for fun
The nylon on her left leg had started a little run
Well she come bustin' back home about nine I know I wasn't tight
But that nylon run I noticed now was over on the right

Suspicion suspicion it's got it's hold on me
When that green-eyed monster gets you he'll never set you free
