Steep Canyon Rangers - Can't Get Home lyrics

Artist: Steep Canyon Rangers

album: Out in the Open


I know better than to cuss in my mama's house
So more than not I just shut my mouth
She hasn't lived here in a year or more
But I still stand a little straighter when I walk in the door
There's a fresh coat of paint on the kitchen wall
How it looked before I scare recall
Somewhere beneath there's a pencil line
Shows how tall I stood the day I turned nine
I can't unsee what I've been shown
My body's been and my mind is lone
And I never was ready for the things I know
I can find the house, but I can't get home
I did my first tour in '94
I was following the dead, I didn't fight no war
And everywhere I went all the locals stared
And it felt good feeling like a stranger there
I can't unsee what I've been shown
My body's been and my mind is lone
And I never was ready for the things I know
I can find the house, but I can't get home
Dogwood's blooming like they always did
And the roof still leaks on the garden shed
And the sign in the yard says it's all been sold
But I gave it away a long time ago
I can't unsee what I've been shown
My body's been and my mind is lone
And I never was ready for the things I know
I can find the house, but I can't get home
I can walk in the door, but I can't get home
I can sleep in the bed, but I can't get home
