Home By Dawn
He said goodbye and just walked right out the door.
He looked so
good he must have practiced it before.
He said, I got me some business.
Said it shouldn't take long.
She cried oh.
You be home by dawn.
(She must have been crazy)
Oh, you be home by dawn.
He started shooting when times got lean and hard.
He didn't expect to end up rumin' through a wrecklng yard.
She was homne with the lights on...
Every shade was drawn.
She cried oh, bring him home bydawn.
(The boy's in trouble now)
Oh. you be home by dawn.
She prayed, try to be home by dawn!
He said.
He said goodbye and just walked right out the door.
She said last time sonny, you've done it too much before.
She even said, you can take it or leave it.
So natura! ly he's gone.
She eried oh, you be home by dawn.
(One too many times)
Oh she said be home by dawn.
Who did she thin'k I was.
To be home by dawn.
No, no, no...
I don't know how to be home by dawn.
He looked so
good he must have practiced it before.
He said, I got me some business.
Said it shouldn't take long.
She cried oh.
You be home by dawn.
(She must have been crazy)
Oh, you be home by dawn.
He started shooting when times got lean and hard.
He didn't expect to end up rumin' through a wrecklng yard.
She was homne with the lights on...
Every shade was drawn.
She cried oh, bring him home bydawn.
(The boy's in trouble now)
Oh. you be home by dawn.
She prayed, try to be home by dawn!
He said.
He said goodbye and just walked right out the door.
She said last time sonny, you've done it too much before.
She even said, you can take it or leave it.
So natura! ly he's gone.
She eried oh, you be home by dawn.
(One too many times)
Oh she said be home by dawn.
Who did she thin'k I was.
To be home by dawn.
No, no, no...
I don't know how to be home by dawn.
