To Get Back Home |
Twenty-one days out on the road |
The van broke down in a foot of snow |
Don’t even know where the hell we are |
The batteries gone and the phone won’t charge |
Wanted let you know, I’m doing my best to get back home |
I ain’t had no sleep, ain’t washed my clothes |
But everybody says it’s a damn good show |
The pay’s enough and the crowds are good |
But sometimes I’d rather be chopping wood |
Or rolling rocks up a hill |
But it’s the only way I know to pay the bills |
And the songs I sing can’t get through and my mind fills up with you |
And I drift off in a dream, about you and me |
When I wake up to a wild ass crowd, the guitar amp is way too loud |
Well the drummer’s been cheating on his wife |
And the bass man is too drunk to drive |
That’s the way it goes |
I’m just doing my best to get back home |
And the songs I sing can’t get through and my mind fills up with you |
And I drift off in a dream, about you and me |
Well the manager called, we’ve got five more shows |
Let me talk to the kids and then I got to go |
Your man’s got to do what a man’s got to do to bring that money on home to you |
I want to let you know, I’m just doing my best to get back home |
I’m just doing my best to get back home |
I’m just doing my best to get back home |
