(There's) Nobody Home to Go Home To
(Dickey Lee - Allen Reynolds - Milton Addington)
The neon lights are going out the barmaid's half asleep
Soon they'll have to close the door and put me on the street
About half as tight as I need to be to face this night alone
While others sleep in loving beds and I'm just kicking stones.
'Cause there's nobody home to go home to
And I pray the Lord that somehow I'll get by
But there's nobody home to go home to
And tonight I'd like to lay me down and cry.
--- Instrumental ---
I see it in my foggy mind the shutters and the doors
Where flowers bloom and love once grew a hundred years before
Where a girl I used to know made my life a song
Then the picture fades away and all the world is wrong.
'Cause there's nobody home to go home to
And I pray the Lord that somehow I'll get by
But there's nobody home to go home to
And tonight I'd like to lay me down and cry.
Yes, tonight I'd like to lay me down and cry...
The neon lights are going out the barmaid's half asleep
Soon they'll have to close the door and put me on the street
About half as tight as I need to be to face this night alone
While others sleep in loving beds and I'm just kicking stones.
'Cause there's nobody home to go home to
And I pray the Lord that somehow I'll get by
But there's nobody home to go home to
And tonight I'd like to lay me down and cry.
--- Instrumental ---
I see it in my foggy mind the shutters and the doors
Where flowers bloom and love once grew a hundred years before
Where a girl I used to know made my life a song
Then the picture fades away and all the world is wrong.
'Cause there's nobody home to go home to
And I pray the Lord that somehow I'll get by
But there's nobody home to go home to
And tonight I'd like to lay me down and cry.
Yes, tonight I'd like to lay me down and cry...
