Ballad of Joe
Tell you a little story about a kid name Joe
Was looking for love but love was never at home
He was a young kid
Wide eyed, innocent
Mother never loved him half as much as she could
He was always in the way and up to no good
He was a young kid
Wide eyed, innocent
So Mum and Dad number one start to fight
He's always sitting on the wrong side of right
And so he wonders in the middle of the night
Where is my home?
Things were getting worse and by age thirteen
He'd moved from town to town never making a scene
Tossed out of one place on to the next phase poor kid
Mother shacked up with a new husband
Started making trouble and it's over again
Tossed out of one place on to the next phase poor kid
So Mum and Dad number four start to fight
He's always sitting on the wrong side of right
And so he wonders in the middle of the night
Where is my home?
And now I know it's always easy on the outside looking in
And I've made my share of mistakes and I don't know where to begin
But if I ever had a kid the likes of Joe
I'd sit him down and I'd want him to know
That a home is a place where you should feel safe and loved
And you will never be a burden
And you'll always have a place in my heart
Yeah a home is place where you should feel safe and loved
And you will never be a burden
And you'll always have a place in my heart
So where is my home?
Where is my home?
Where is my home?
Where is home?
Was looking for love but love was never at home
He was a young kid
Wide eyed, innocent
Mother never loved him half as much as she could
He was always in the way and up to no good
He was a young kid
Wide eyed, innocent
So Mum and Dad number one start to fight
He's always sitting on the wrong side of right
And so he wonders in the middle of the night
Where is my home?
Things were getting worse and by age thirteen
He'd moved from town to town never making a scene
Tossed out of one place on to the next phase poor kid
Mother shacked up with a new husband
Started making trouble and it's over again
Tossed out of one place on to the next phase poor kid
So Mum and Dad number four start to fight
He's always sitting on the wrong side of right
And so he wonders in the middle of the night
Where is my home?
And now I know it's always easy on the outside looking in
And I've made my share of mistakes and I don't know where to begin
But if I ever had a kid the likes of Joe
I'd sit him down and I'd want him to know
That a home is a place where you should feel safe and loved
And you will never be a burden
And you'll always have a place in my heart
Yeah a home is place where you should feel safe and loved
And you will never be a burden
And you'll always have a place in my heart
So where is my home?
Where is my home?
Where is my home?
Where is home?
