Home Field Advantage Lyrics

You ain't much of a player and you ain't playin' for free.
You just know all the chatter and you've been chattin' at me.
Now you're takin' me down with a home field advantage.
And you're callin' me out with a home field advantage.

You may have thrown me a curveball. Yeah, you threw a doozie at me.
You ain't too fast cause you're so tall. You threw a doozie at me.
And now you're takin' me down with a home field advantage.
And you're callin' me out with a home field advantage.

You don't know what to do. Yeah, you're lookin' around.
Nobody's at home and you don't know the count.
Well, you break and run just to tie it up.

You're takin' me down with a home field advantage.
And you're callin' me out with a home field advantage.

Cover art for Home Field Advantage lyrics by Drive-By Truckers

This proves that Shonna is a damn good singer. She's an adorable member of the Truckers.

Guess this song is about having various qualities, and sometimes being in situations (like relationships going ugly) that you don't have qualities to handle.

You're looking around without knowing what to do, because you've never been in such one situation before. Your house is empty, and you can't find the one(s) you want to hold on to for comfort.

Just a thought: Shonna is referencing Jason here. He being a musician who was comfortable vocally on stage, a mainstay in terms of song writing, etc. He uses his status and presence in the band to manipulate the relationship. This could be complete bullshit, I'm just guessing. She's an outstanding member and her vocal contribution to the latest album is fantastic.
