Way They Should Lyrics

Hey mama, can I call, I need to come back home

The place I'm at ain't working, and they left me all alone

My calloused hands are burning, and my six string got no strings

The version of me that I wanna be is only in my dreams

My heart is like a shipwreck, it's been hit by a thousand waves

A bottle of Jack a pack and a half gets me through my days

the feeling of redemption, feels good for a while

Until it comes back, stabs your back, and your life ends up like mine

I know that I gotta try, the devil doesn't lie

Hell right now is empty, but they're all here to fight

The angels try their best to fight the bad out of good

But sometimes things don't work out the way they should

I see fire in the distance, it's coming right this way

Nothing beats a bad man down, no more than this own flame

If you ever get the notion, you don't wanna fight with me

Take a step back, pack your bags, and hit the highway

I know that I gotta try, the devil doesn't lie

Hell right now is empty, but they're all here to fight

The angels try their best to fight the bad out of good

But sometimes things don't work out the way they should

Hey mama, can I call? I'm ready to leave home

I found a place down south where I won't feel alone

My calloused hands are working, and my six-string now got strings

I learned some things and followed my dreams, and now I feel free
