Welfare Chet by Joshua Ray Walker Lyrics

[Chorus 1]
Everybody wants to go home
But no one wants to go home with me
Is it 'cause I live in my truck?
I'm down on my luck?
Or sometimes I smell like green?
I ain't got a dime
But what I got is mine
Ever since the state let me free
Yeah, everybody wants to go home
But no one wants to go home with me

[Verse]
Every time you say you gotta go
I want to talk a little longer
Even when you're walking to your ride
I come on a little stronger
Asking if you want to take a shot
But you end up buying my beer
Talking with a mouthful of food
But they don't serve food hеre
[Chorus 2]
Yeah, evеrybody wants to go home
But no one wants to go home with me
Is it 'cause my welfare checks
Pay for motel room sex?
And I lie about being clean?
Well, folks disagree
But they don't have the key
It's my L-I-F-E
Yeah, everybody wants to go home
But no one wants to go home with me

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus 1]
Yeah, everybody wants to go home
But no one wants to go home with me
Is it 'cause I live in my truck?
I'm down on my luck?
Or sometimes I smell like green?
I ain't got a dime
But what I got is mine
Ever since the state let me free
Yeah, everybody wants to go home
But no one wants to go home with me
[Outro]
Yeah, everybody wants to go home
But no one wants to go home with me
