Back Home Old Buddy

In the ward I said, "Don't die," and then she died
I died and then I cried and then I cried
My heart just had a deep down beating
But grappling for the meaning

Took me and my mouth down to X-Ray
And me and my lady parted ways
I'm coming back home, old buddy wait
Don't tell me that you already ate

He cornered me and I didn't let up
He blistered me and I didn't let up
He left for war and never came back
That's all on time

Took me and my mouth down to X-Ray
And me and my lady parted ways
I'm coming back home, old buddy wait
Don't tell me that you already ate

I'll be 71 and thinking of now
The family out on the boat and beer on the bow
The sea was cool and the earth hadn't melted down

Took me and my mouth down to X-Ray
And me and my lady parted ways
I'm coming back home, old buddy wait
Don't tell me that you already ate
