lyrics

Just lay your baggage on the tarmac, my dear
Those broken suitcases bring you to tears
When you gonna realize you can just leave it all here
And take me home, girl, take me home.

There’s no point in saying sorry, ain’t no point in blame
Even stupid junkies know time don’t work on shame
I know how we got here, but not why we came
So take me home, girl, take me home.

Oh, I might be shallow, but all I want is Jesus
To think that I’m a real cool dude
I sure hope he likes the desperate ways I’m living
And my secret tattoo

I went around the corner, said I’d be right back
But now I’m fastened to these low-down tracks
With steel cuffs and steel chains and I keep taking smacks
So take me home, girl, take me home.

Oh, I need so bad what I know you’re keeping
Deep inside your anxious heart
I know full well everything ends
You know not everything gets a chance to start.

Take me, baby.
