Can't Go Home Lyrics

Took a ride out to nowhere west

In a listless fog I was barely dressed

Only on the road an hour when I knew

There's a hill where the trucks get blessed

Midnight fire flash is a dragon's breath

Never made it til the morning to find proof

Parking lot put me to the test

Screaming yellow lights I could barely rest

If I squint the sun's an apricot of truth

Back in town where the toast ain't wet

Couldn't pay the check so I sat and wept

There's an exit by the bathroom that's my move

Now I can't go home

Somehow knew this all along

Now I can't go home and face you

Never on my own

And my right of way is wrong

If I can't go home I can't lose

On a train but I must confess

Didn't pay the fare I'm a nervous wreck

Found a twenty and a pick case in my boot

Bought a copy of today's Free Press

Right above the fold I was so impressed

Must've called you for that photo I assume

Now I can't go home

Somehow knew this all along

Now I can't go home and face you

Never on my own

And my right of way is wrong

If I can't go home I can't lose

No one knows the owner and this causes him some strife

Always with him is the one he didn't choose

Only off the record it's the only way of life

If it's written then you read it that's the truth

Now I can't go home

Somehow knew this all along

Now I can't go home and face you

Never on my own

And my right of way is wrong

If I can't go home I can't lose
