You Can Still Come Home

Where the flock flies in as the mandolin
Plays a beat down hymn that's in your daddy's blood
It's duck season and his Browning
Is frozen in that Rogers County mud
It ain't been shot since she got caught
With cancer growing down her lungs
But you'll always got these times to get you by when times are low
Like that time you saw the firework bounce off the dirt and explode
Yeah, you can still come home
The back-shop light stays on
The beer's always ice cold
Yeah, you can still come home
When you're down bad in a taxi cab
You gave all you had to some drunkered crowd in Jersey
Christmas Eve alone 'cause your chemicals are low
Got your father and your sister and the band all worried
'Cause you can't play rhythm like you used to
Miss it on the one-two and kick sounds hurried
But you'll always have these times to float you by when times are low
Like the time you saw the springtime make cricks out my winter snow
Yeah, you can still come home
The back-shop light stays on
And even though she's gone
Yeah, you can still come home
Well, the flock flies in as the violin
Plays the same old hymn that's in your mama's blood
It's duck season, the tree's so thin
The moon's seepin' on Rogers County mud
But you always got these times to get you by when times are low
Like that time you saw that firework bounce off the dirt and explode
Yeah, you can still come home
The back-shop light stays on
And even though you're grown
Yeah, you can still come home
Yeah, you can still come home
Yeah, you can still come home
