《Homecoming》歌词

[00:00:00] Homecoming - Bobby Bare

[00:00:09] I guess I should have written dad

[00:00:11] To let you know that I was coming home

[00:00:17] But I've been gone so many years

[00:00:20] I didn't realize you had a phone

[00:00:26] I saw your cattle comin' in and boy

[00:00:29] They're looking mighty fat and sleek

[00:00:35] I saw fred at the service station he told me

[00:00:38] That his wife was awful sick

[00:00:44] You heard my record on the radio

[00:00:47] Oh well it's just another song

[00:00:53] But I've got a hit recorded dad

[00:00:55] It'll be out on the market before too long

[00:01:01] Oh I got this ring in mexico

[00:01:04] You know it didn't cost me quite a bunch

[00:01:11] When you're in the business

[00:01:12] That I'm in the people call it puttin' up a front

[00:01:20] I know I've lost a little weight

[00:01:22] And I guess I'm a looking kinda pale

[00:01:28] If you didn't know me better dad you'd think

[00:01:31] That I've just gotten out of jail

[00:01:37] No we don't ever call them beer joints night clubs

[00:01:40] Are the places where I work

[00:01:46] You meet a lotta people there

[00:01:48] But no there ain't much chance of gettin' hurt

[00:01:55] I'm sorry that I couldn't be here

[00:01:57] With you all when mama passed away

[00:02:04] I was on the road and when they came

[00:02:07] And told me it was just too late

[00:02:12] I drove by the grave to see her and boy

[00:02:16] That really is a pretty stone

[00:02:22] I'm glad that fred and jan are here

[00:02:24] It's better than you being here alone

[00:02:31] I knew you's gonna ask me who the lady is

[00:02:34] Who's sleepin' in the car

[00:02:39] That's just the girl that works for me

[00:02:42] And man she plays a pretty mean guitar

[00:02:48] We worked in san antone last night

[00:02:51] She didn't even have the time to dress

[00:02:57] She drove me in from nashville

[00:02:59] And to tell the truth I guess she needs the rest

[00:03:06] Well dad I gotta go we got a dance

[00:03:09] To work in cartersville tonight

[00:03:15] Let me take your number down

[00:03:17] I'll call you and I promise you I'll write

[00:03:24] Now you be good and don't be chasin'

[00:03:26] All those pretty women that you know

[00:03:32] And by the way if you see barbara walker

[00:03:35] Tell her that I said hello
