Don't Come Home Songtext
He was raised in the holler where he worked for a dollar that was awfully hard to come by
Dust and feed on his blue jeans is all he gains on that mountain side
Mixin' meal in an old feed mill is what he was born into
Slaving away with very little pay, and broke back's what he's grown kin to
He had a dark haired girl, his green-eyed world that would soon tear his apart
He went into town and he soon found out she didn't only have his heart
She was sharin' it with a few other men and she left him in the dark
She thought she was hid, but he knew what she did, hе never was too far
Said I've workеd my life away just so you could stay home
Dust and feed on his blue jeans is all he gains on that mountain side
Mixin' meal in an old feed mill is what he was born into
Slaving away with very little pay, and broke back's what he's grown kin to
He had a dark haired girl, his green-eyed world that would soon tear his apart
He went into town and he soon found out she didn't only have his heart
She was sharin' it with a few other men and she left him in the dark
She thought she was hid, but he knew what she did, hе never was too far
Said I've workеd my life away just so you could stay home
But you loved runnin around town with every man I know
And I'd lift the heavy load and you'd lay out all night
You loved runnin them roads, but tonight will be the last time
She comes home in the mornin' when the suns done snorin' and it starts to rise
Says I need to be real and tell her how I feel and how I'm fed up with her lies
And if she don't change, it sure will be a shame if I kept on letting this slide
But I'm thinkin' maybe I oughtta tell my baby tonight will be her last ride
Cause you take all the money I make and you spend it where you roam
I can't count all the lonesome nights when I don't know where you go
Now I'm drinkin' my self away, honey I might do something wrong
Best advice I could give tonight is honey don't come home
They got me locked in the pen, for what I did, for what happened to her
But I ain't gotta worry about her runnin' around, now this I know for sure
And I'd lift the heavy load and you'd lay out all night
You loved runnin them roads, but tonight will be the last time
She comes home in the mornin' when the suns done snorin' and it starts to rise
Says I need to be real and tell her how I feel and how I'm fed up with her lies
And if she don't change, it sure will be a shame if I kept on letting this slide
But I'm thinkin' maybe I oughtta tell my baby tonight will be her last ride
Cause you take all the money I make and you spend it where you roam
I can't count all the lonesome nights when I don't know where you go
Now I'm drinkin' my self away, honey I might do something wrong
Best advice I could give tonight is honey don't come home
They got me locked in the pen, for what I did, for what happened to her
But I ain't gotta worry about her runnin' around, now this I know for sure
