Home Street Home lyrics

Home

Home

When I was ten, my old man split

My mama just couldn't deal with it

So I jumped onto a railroad car

And headed out west to be a rock star

Well, I got off in Hollywood

And I'd get out, baby, if I could

'Cause times is tough and my luck is bad

I ain't got no money and it makes me mad

So when you see me on the street

Just remember my shoes could be on your feet

And it's home street home

(Home street home, home)

Home street home, yeah

(Home street home, home)

(Home)

Well, a buddy of mine went to Vietnam

His own guys hit him with a shot of napalm

Now he can't really breathe that well

And he can't get a job, but what the hell?

His benefits ain't never come through

And I'm sure they were spent by you-know-who

I'd like to laugh, that'd be a switch

Ha, life ain't no joke, it's a bitch

And when you see him on the street

Just remember his shoes could be on your feet

And it's home street home

(Home street home, home)

Yeah, home street home

(Home street home, home)

(Home street home, home)   

Home street home, yeah

(Home street home, home)   

Home sweet home

Let me go on the street

(Home)  

Oh, home street home, baby

(Home street home, home)   

Home street home

(Home street home, home)    

(Home)  

He spends his time walking 'round the town

People see his shoppin' cart and they put him down

There's a home street home everywhere you go

He never made it big, but he can put on a show

He's got no rent, no bills, but he don't care

If he needs a place to sleep, he can go anywhere

He don't need to ask for spare change from you

Just appreciate what he goes through

And when you see him on the street

Just remember his shoes could be on your feet

And it's home street home

(Home street home, home)

Yeah, home street home

(Home street home, home)

Home street home, yeah

(Home street home, home)

Home street home, yeah

(Home street home, home)

Home street home, yeah

(Home street home, home) 

Home street home

(Home street home, home)

(Home street home, home)   

Let me go on the street

Guitar

(Home street home, home)   

(Home street home, home)   

(Home street home, home)    

(Home)
