Oh Lord if I could just go home I'd do things different from now on

There wouldn't be near the gray in my old daddy's hair

Oh Lord if I could just go home



I know it wasn't daddy's fault that mama died when I was just a kid

And the best that he could do to raise me right was all he ever did

And I know he'd love mama a lot longer than I had and he was every bit as alone

But I don't guess I'd helped too much to build a happy home

He made sure I got to church every Sunday the way mama had always done

And he was always sorry he had to work so hard and he never had much time for fun

He knew I missed mama a lot

And maybe he was easier on me than he should have been

But it sure ain't his fault that I didn't turn out to be much a man

Well I've grew on into my teens and I guess I thought I was a real hard stuff

Goin' into town hangin' around bars and actin' pretty tough

Well I'm looking out at a different set of bars now

And that little window don't let it much light

You see I got roarin' drinkin' mad one night and I killed the man in a fight

I got a letter from back home the other day

Saying dad had a stroke and he ain't doin' too good

Well if I had done right I'd be there now to help him and God you know I would

And I'd pay him back for all the years of love that he gave me

And I'd be a better man the way I was taught to be

Oh Lord if I could just go home

    One of the places we first fell in love
    They've built a waterslide on the bluff by the riverside
    Where we first fumbled our way into love..."
  • Blue Bayou
    "I feel so bad I've got a worried mind I'm so lonesome all the time
    Since I left my baby behind on Blue Bayou
    Saving nickels and saving dimes working till the sun don't shine
    Looking forward to happier times on Blue Bayou..."
  • Girls, Women And Ladies
    "There was only me and her and him
    The bar was giving last call so I thought I'd move on in
    And I was slick and feeling like a man so I took the stool between 'em
    And ordered one more round for me and her and him..."
  • Give More Than You Take
    "If you wanna keep a love young always show her that you care
    Call her through the day to say you love her always thinking of her
    Give her just a little more love than you take
    If you sometimes seem to hurt her then you mustn't let love die..."

  • Her Sweet Love And The Baby
    "Soft rain kissing the fallen leaves night wind harmonizing with whispering trees
    Of pretty sounds I've heard the sweetest I think maybe
    Is when she sings to the baby
    I look around at riches by which some men measure..."
  • I Know Better
    "I could tell you that it don't hurt you're leavin' me
    And I could say it never really matter the way you've always treated me
    Baby I could lie to you some more and say I won't cry when you walk out back door
    But I know better..."
  • Last Cowboy Song
    "This is the last cowboy song the end of a hundred year waltz
    Voices sound sad as they're singing along another piece of America's lost
    He rides a feed lot and clerks in a market on weekends selling tobacco and beer
    His dreams of tomorrow surrounded by fences..."
