I close the office right on time
Start my car and get in line
And as I approach the Franklin circle stoplight
My mind is workin' overtime
It's once again decision time
Which direction will I turn tonight

Stoplight please don't take so long
Temptation's gettin' mighty strong
The fever in my body moves my arm
Will it go up or down tonight
To give a signal left or right
Left to home or right to Mary's charms

Will I turn left where dinner's on the table
Set with lots of love most every night
Or will I turn right where I know I'll be able
To satisfy my body's appetite
Will I turn right to Mary's arms
Or turn left and go home
Should I turn left to right or right to wrong
