"Come On Home" lyrics

"Come On Home"

Mama
Been thinkin' about you
Can't live without you
Try everyday

Think about ya in the evening
Think about ya in the morning
Think about ya when I'm on the run
Take the pain away

You've gone and hurt, baby
Had to get on down the line
Left the diamond on the dresser, mama
Everything gonna be just be fine

You were going up to Dallas
Going down to Houston
See mama in Knoxville
Now my baby gone

Mama
Left me all alone now
Left me on my own now
Oughta not to die

I been living on barstool
Been acting like a damn fool
When I hear a word about you
Break down and cry

You faster than a locomotive
Had to put it on down the bin
Left the station in the morning, mama
Ain't never going back again

You been going up to New York
Going down to Denver
See mama in Laredo
Now my baby gone

On that lonely estacado, Lord
I'm gonna see you once again

It ain't only desperado, Lord
I can hear it blowing in the wind

Another highway, another hotel
Another trip down to Tennessee
You don't find ya looking for, mama
Better come on back to me
Ya better come on home

Mama
Been living in hurt now
Lay my body in the dirt now
Where the cotton grows

I've been going full throttle
To the bottom of a bottle
Will it ever be the same, Lord?
Nobody knows

I've been trying to get my act together
But I'm living in a world of woe
Ain't nobody in the cemetery
Think about me anymore

She been going up to Dallas
Going down to Houston
Seeing mama in Knoxville
Now my baby gone

On that lonely estacado, Lord
I'm gonna see you once again

It ain't only desperado, Lord
I can hear it blowing in the wind

Another highway, another hotel
Another trip down to Tennessee
You don't find ya looking for, mama
Better come on back to me
Ya better come on home
