Genre: pop | Year: 2014

[Verse 1]
Right 'round the corner
Down by the canyon
I met a man who lost his way
He said I'm someone, the son of a sailor
Who never showed me his face
But daddy's gone
And my momma met a maker
Oh, to hell with that place

[Chorus 1]
So I said quit your talking
Your sideways walking
Time to find another path to take
Quit your wining
Your blood-shot crying
Faking like you're dying never pays
Just go home
You need you some home
Oh, you need you some home
[Verse 2]
Her name was Peggy Sue
And her daddy hung the moon
In her eyes, he could do no wrong
But then he started drinking
Like there's a message in the bottle
Now daddy's painting Peggy black and blue

[Chorus 2]
She closes her eyes
Through the hero's demise
Holds to a hope beyond the sky
She takes a breath
Weight comes off her chest
She finds a way to weather through the storm
She cried out home
I need me some home
Oh, I need me some home (some home)

[Verse 3]
I found myself on a train to California
At twenty-five years of age
Set beside me was a lovely rose wanderer
Two's always better they say

[Chorus 3]
So, we made our plans
She gave me a hand
We ain't got no time for looking back
I was bruised and beaten
Lost for many reasons
Only love would make you understand
Home, I love me some home
I love me some home (some home)
Hey, I love me some home
We're all bruised and beaten
Lost on account of many reasons
But only love would make you understand
Home, oh, I love me some home
Oh, I love me some home (love me some home)
Yeah, I love me some home (ooh)
Oh, I love me some home (love me some home)
Love me some home
