Can't Go Back Home |
Pack my suitcase, pair of boots |
Slip out the backdoor, nothing to lose |
Full moon rising out on the road |
Ain’t carrying nothing but this heavy load |
Turning loose of the ties that bind |
Feeling turmoil in my mind |
But I can’t look back, these times are gone |
I know, I can’t go back home |
My granddaddy he mends his fence |
He stands tall but he’s kind of bent |
His hands are worn, but they are strong |
Takes care of his place, he lives alone |
I’m sure he wonders what’s happened to me |
He’s keeping it real, I’m living a dream |
He checks the cows, Lord, he’s up at dawn |
But I know I can’t go back home |
There was a storm the other night |
Had to talk to God, try to set things right |
Church door was locked, Lord, I stood in the rain |
Waiting for an answer but it never came |
I believe in living, give it all I got |
I’m strong enough except when I’m not |
Little piece of daylight, time to move on |
It’s just a reminder, I can’t go back home |
Just a reminder |
I can’t go back home |
Just a reminder |
I can’t go back home |
I can’t go back home |
No going home |
Can’t go back home |
