Stuck between the do or die, I feel emaciated Hard to breathe I try and try, I'll get asphyxiated Swinging from the tallest height, with nothing left to hold on, to Every sky is blue, but not for me and you Come home Come home Come home Come home Glass and petrol, vodka, gin, it feels like breathing methane Throw yourself from skin to skin, and still it doesn't dull the pain Vanish like a lipstick trace, it always blows me away Every cloud is grey, with dreams of yesterday Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home Always goes against the grain and I can try and deny it Give a monkey half a brain, and still he's bound to fry it Now the happening scene is dead, I used to want to be there, too Every sky is blue, but not for me and you Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home

Well, hello, world Hope you're listening Forgive me if I'm young For speaking out of turn There's someone I've been missing I think that they could be The better half of me They're in the wrong place Tryin' to make it right But I'm tired of justifying So I say to you Come home, come home 'Cause I've been waiting for you For so long, for so long And right now there's a war between the vanities But all I see is you and me And the fight for you is all I've ever known So come home Ooh I get lost in the beauty Of everything I see The world ain't half as bad As they paint it to be If all the sons, all the daughters Stopped to take it in Well, hopefully, the hate subsides And the love can begin It might start now, yeah Well, maybe I'm just dreaming out loud Well, until then Come home, come home 'Cause I've been waiting for you For so long, for so long And right now there's a war between the vanities But all I see is you and me And the fight for you is all I've ever known, ever known So come home Ooh Everything I can't be Is everything you should be And that's why I need you here Everything I can't be Is everything you should be And that's why I need you here So hear this now Come home, come home 'Cause I've been waiting for you For so long, for so long And right now, there's a war between the vanities But all I see is you and me And the fight for you is all I've ever known, ever known So come home, come home Ooh

Well, goodbye tubs and clothes lines, goodbye pots and pans I'm a gonna take a greyhound bus, as further as I can I ain't a gonna wash no windows and I ain't a gonna scrub no floors And when you realize I'm gone, I'm a gonna hear you roar. And you'll say hey Loretta, I love you more than my Irish Setter Hey Loretta, don't leave me alone Hey Loretta, I swear I'm a gonna treat you better Buy you brand new overalls if you'll only come back home. I work my fingers to the bone and we don't hardly speak And all I ever get is just a little kiss about once a week So you can feed the chickens and you can milk the cow This a woman's liberation, honey is a gonna start right now. And you'll say hey Loretta, I love you more than my Irish Setter Hey Loretta, don't leave me alone Hey Loretta, I swear I'm a gonna treat you better Buy you brand new overalls if you'll only come back home. I'll dress up like a movie star and pretty up my hair And no one here is a gonna know what I'll be doing there I'll be swinging from a chandelier and bouncin' off the walls Instead of lovin' just one man I'm a gonna love 'em all. And you'll say hey Loretta, I love you more than my Irish Setter Hey Loretta, don't leave me alone Hey Loretta, I swear I'm a gonna treat you better Buy you brand new overalls if you'll only come back home...

We used to go out walkin' hand in hand You told me all the big things you had planned It wasn't long 'till all your dreams came true Success put me in second place with you. You have no time to love me any more Since fame and fortune knocked upon our door Now I spend all my evenings all alone Success had made a failure of our home. --- Instrumental --- If we could share an evening now and then Perhaps we'd find true happiness again You never hold me like you used to do It's funny what success has done to you. You have no time to love me any more Since fame and fortune knocked upon our door Now I spend all my evenings all alone Success has made a failure of our home...

Well, if you've been a married woman And things didn't seem to work out Divorce is the key to bein' loose and free So you're gonna be talked about Everybody knows that you've loved once So they think you'll love again You can't have a male friend When you're a has been Of a woman you're rated X And if you're rated X you're some kind of goal Every man might try to make But I think it's wrong to judge every picture If a cheap camera makes a mistake And when your best friend's husband says to you You've sure started lookin' good You should've known he would And he would if he could and he will if you're rated X Well, nobody knows where you're goin' But they sure know where you've been All their thinkin' of is your experience of love Their minds eat up with sin The women all look at you like you're bad And the men all hope you are But if you go too far you're gonna wear the scar Of a woman rated X And if you're rated X you're some kind of goal Every man might try to make But I think it's wrong to judge every picture If a cheap camera makes a mistake And when your best friend's husband says to you You've sure started lookin' good You should've known he would And he would if he could and he will if you're rated X

You left me for the bright lights of the town A country boy set out to see the world Remember when those city lights shine down That big old moon shines on your Kentucky girl I swear I love you by the moon above you How bright is it shinin' in your world Some mornings when you wake up all alone Just come on home to your blue Kentucky girl [ Banjo ] Don't wait to bring great riches home to me I need no diamond rings or fancy pearls Just bring yourself you're all I'll ever need That's good enough for this blue Kentucky girl I swear I love you by stars...

I'd rather have Jesus than silver or gold I'd rather be his than have riches untold I'd rather have Jesus than houses or land I'd rather be led by his nail pierced hands Than to be the queen of the best domain and beheld in sin's dreads way I'd rather have Jesus than anything this world affords today [ Steel ] I'd rather have Jesus than men's applause I'd rather be faithful to his dear cause I'd rather have Jesus then world wide things I'd rather be true to his holy name Than to be the queen...

You've come to tell me somethin' You say I ought to know That he don't love me anymore And I'll have to let him go You say you're gonna take him Oh, but I don't think you can 'Cause you ain't woman enough to take my man Women like you, they're a dime a dozen You can buy 'em anywhere For you to get to him, I'd have to move over And I'm gonna stand right here It'll be over my dead body So get out while you can 'Cause you ain't woman enough to take my man Sometimes a man's caught lookin' At things that he don't need He took a second look at you But he's in love with me Well, I don't know where that leaves you Oh, but I know where I stand And you ain't woman enough to take my man Women like you they're a dime a dozen You can buy 'em anywhere For you to get to him, I'd have to move over And I'm gonna stand right here It'll be over my dead body So get out while you can 'Cause you ain't woman enough to take my man No, you ain't woman enough to take my man
