I'm just one song away from bein' home, Lord
I'm one song away from bein' home
I've got one more verse to do and if the crowd'll let me through
I'm just one song away from bein' home
I'm just one song away from bein' home

Every hotel clerk looks like the last
And most girls are just waiting to be asked
Every town looks the same and there's no more new names
And the future looks worse than the past

But I'm just one song away from bein' home, Lord
I'm one song away from bein' home
I've got one more verse to do and if the crowd'll let me through
I'm just one song away from bein' home

All the words to my songs lose their meaning
All the dressing rooms seem to need cleaning
Every town has different weather all the days run together
But I have to smile and knock out my routine

But I'm just one song away from bein' home, Lord
I'm one song away from bein' home
I've got one more verse to do and if the crowd'll let me through
I'm just one song away from bein' home
I'm just one song away from bein' home
