My baby?s at home with her radio on A hot meal and a tall stiff drink I think I?ll sing her a lullaby And I?ll watch her fall fast asleep One day she walked by me and lightning was striking And the clouds they were burning black She swept back her hair and the clouds they did stare As the sunshine pushed it?s way back? (chorus) And there?s only one place I wanna be when the day is done Well that?s lying half stoned outta my mind Wrapped up in your love. I spent some time on a California line I was shipping parts back east And the day soon came they released me from my chains I had all the money that I?d need And them greyhounds ran slow and the hours ran long Awe but I was finally on my way I stepped through the doorway and that big house was empty And there ain?t no words to explain? (repeat chorus) Well, someday I?ll die from the pains in my life And I?m sent where there?s pain no more All I can say is there?d better be a way For me to hold close the one that I adore Heaven?s a place no one wants to face before the time is through And if ever a realm existed in hell, It would be me without you? (repeat chorus)
