Gretchen Peters - Blackbirds

When you Comin’ Home

some old ships they sail, some old ships they sink
cause you got a bottle, don't mean you have to drink
when you comin' home baby, when you comin' back to your girl

I been on the east side waiting for your call
I've been workin' corners, when I work at all
when you comin' home baby, when you comin' back to your girl

cause these walls are closin in
and your old coat is way too thin

Billy on the Corner, he's still taking bets
but I don't like to gamble on things that I can't get
when you comin' home baby, when you comin' back to your girl

now the winter's closin' in
and your old coat is way too thin

banging on the ceiling, banging on the floor
waterpipes are freezin' and my key don't fit the door
when you comin' home baby, when you comin' back to your girl
