A Man Without a Home Lyrics

I got back in this town today for ten long years I've been away
Been working for the state I've been a working behind a big iron gate
I thought I'd take a stroll downtown maybe kinda look around
Just to ease my worried mind and maybe pass away some time
My friend said buddy come on in and I'll buy you another round
Your woman ain't at home no more she's out among the town
Well I guess she couldn't stand the pain my prison life would ruin her name
Guess that's why my babe has gone I'm a man I'm a man without a home
[ guitar - piano ]
My friend said buddy...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
