If you're goin' To the other side If you're goin' To take that ride... Take me home... Excuse me, sir Could you pay my way? I'll return the favor Another day Don't matter when We can go in the day or night Under the bright sun Or by the moonlight... Take me home... It's taken years Just to reach this port I've come a ways too long now Jus' to come up short An' I can hear 'em callin' From that distant shore An' I can hear the echo Down in my core... Take me home... So listen, mister Help me if you would You won't regret it My word is good Someday I'll be there Y'know I'll be your friend I'll be the one to meet you When you reach the end... Take me home...

Comin' home wasted in the mornin' Lost my belt and my shoes Comin' home wasted in the mornin' But I still got my blues... Find some mercy with the fall of night The setting sun sets us free But what goes down will always come back up It just won't let us be... I know you been waitin' since before the dawn worried I might lose my way But I been waitin' since the day I was born For that holy day... Those demons well they hound my soul I guess they will 'til the end So for now I'll let the good times roll Have you got one to lend? Comin' home wasted in the mornin' Lost my belt and my shoes Comin' home wasted in the mornin' But I still got my blues... Find some mercy with the fall of night The setting sun sets us free But what goes down will always come back up It just won't let us be...
