I am working on a new project, old blues and standards. I have decided to call it Deanna Smith and Papas Kitchen Pass. I thought that I needed to write a song about Papa and his kitchen pass.....I spent a few hours last night, it fairly flew out of my brain.....here are the lyrics. Papas Kitchen Pass (c) Deanna Smith 2014 It’s a Saturday night dilemma, The work of the week is done Mama wants to go to sleep early, but Papa wants to have some fun He walks on down to the corner, siddles up to the bar You can take it to the bank, He’s gonna join the ranks of men Whose wives don’t know where they are He’s laughin and smiling and drinkin, just hanging out with the boys He’s not here for romance, it’s his only chance to blow off steam and make some noise He’s not looking for trouble , he’s a good family man He don’t want any strife, so he’s cleared it with his wife Papa’s got a kitchen pass Papa’s got a kitchen pass About half past 11, the barman answers the phone, As he lies his face is blank , an old guy whispers thanks And slips out the door headed home But Papa he ain’t got no worries, cause Mama she sleeps like a stone He knows He’ll be in the lurch if he’s not up for church Papas got a kitchen pass Papa’s got a kitchen pass Papa should’ve gone home early ,Tomorrow there’ll be hell to pay But now it’s bourbon and cigars, high stakes poker cards Cause tomorrow’s still 12 hours away He comes strolling home round sunrise, this time maybe the last He’s gonna get some grief, swear to turn over that leaf He’s afraid he’ll lose his kitchen pass Papas got a kitchen pass Papas got a kitchen pass Sunday morning comes too early, With the clatter of old pots and pans He wants to stay in bed, but the pounding in his head Leave him searching for a remedy Papas gotta walk on egg shells, cause Mamas in a mood again If he’s not up for mass, shes gonna kick his ass And take away his kitchen pass Papas got a kitchen pass Papas got a kitchen pass Papas got a kitchen pass Papas got a kitchen pass….
