Your Name's Become A Household Word Lyrics - Jean Shepard

I just turned out the light upstairs the kids are fast asleep 

I listened while they said their prayers for the Lord their souls to keep 

And I didn't hear them say your name for the first time since you've gone 

Your name's become a houselhold word in every house but home 

For gossip doesn't care to hear that you found somebody new 

That little pictures have big ears they heard the stories too 

But if you should come back home tonight we'd forget the shame we've known 

Then your name would be a houselhold word and this house would be a home 

Yes your name would be a houselhold word and this house would be a home
