I was thinkin' about goin' home
|
But now I don't believe that I will go
|
I was thinkin' about goin' home
|
But now I don't believe that I will go
|
I'm gonna stay away a long time
|
Ooo-well-well, like I did one time ago
|
|
My babe will be glad
|
To see me come walkin' in her do'
|
My babe will be glad
|
To see me come walkin' in her do'
|
Well I nar remember, hoo-well
|
You will never see me any more
|
|
Home is a happy place
|
If you can make it that way
|
Home is a happy place
|
If you can make it that way
|
Well, now if you can't keep a happy home
|
Hoo-well-well, it will be the devil each and ev'ryday
|
|
I try to be good
|
Baby, ev'ry place I gone
|
I try to be good
|
Baby, ev'ry place I go
|
But now you know there will come a day
|
Hoo-well, that I will have some place I know
|
|
Now, if I go home
|
Do you think that would be the best place to be?
|
I said, if I go home
|
Do you think that would be the best place to be?
|
And then again if I go home
|
Hoo-well, do you think she will be mean to me?
