I look out across corn rows from a dirt road Baby's kicked back in the front seat Got her bare fit hanging out the window We take a trip down memory lane Dirt on the truck, no chance of rain My third generation farming friends all pray that its on the way And if it don't show up, we'll be alright 'Cause folks round here wouldn't take a million For a different life Home sweet home I thank my lucky stars at night I was raised down here and raised up right And my pride, you've got that right Home sweet home Where a little bit goes long way And we shut her down on sundays I won't ever get too far away From home sweet home Pull down to the cane bridge Park in the ditch Folks and poles are lined up A little kid holds a stringer up Got a mess of fish I drive away with a smile on my face Knowing that this place is blessed By God's amazing grace Home sweet home I thank my lucky stars at night I was raised down here and raised up right And my pride, you've got that right Home sweet home Where a little bit goes long way And we shut her down on sundays I won't ever get too far away From Home sweet home No matter where I go Or where the road might lead This little speck on the map, is always gonna be Home sweet home I thank my lucky stars at night I was raised down here and raised up right And my pride, you've got that right Home sweet home Where a little bit goes long way And we shut her down on sundays I won't ever get too far away From home sweet home Yeah, I'm coming home

She broke today A perfect little heart in my hand She came undone I hesitate I'm waiting on my father to say I love you son It's coming in phases And I'm ready for none I knew it would change me But I'm overcome My father's son Me and my heavy mind I've been given far too much time And it weighs a ton My cover fire Come lay down right here on my chest My little one Before I'm done It's coming in phases And I'm ready for none I knew it would change me The man I become So I try to relate it To where I came from But it's coming in phases And I'm overcome My father's son My empty page I will give you more than my name I love you, son It's coming in phases And I'm ready for none I knew it would change me The man I become So I try to relate it To where I came from But it's coming in phases And I'm overcome My father's son My father's son

Some ancient call That I've answered before It lives in my walls And it's under the floor If this was meant for me, why does it hurt so much? And if you're not made for me, why did we fall in love? A knock at my door I thought I was alone Unaware of what I've thought I needed I dropped like a stone If I'm not mistaken, then I was the last to know And if you return for me, I'd never want for more You're dislocated Don't be like that And you smile when you dive in Like you're never coming back So hold my body Yeah, hold my breath See your face when I black out I'm never coming back Fear of the water Fear of the water You're dislocated Don't be like that And you smile when you dive in Like you're never coming back So hold my body Yeah, hold my breath See your face when I black out I'm never coming back You're dislocated Don't be like that And you smile when you dive in Like you're never coming, never coming back So hold my body Yeah, hold my breath See your face when I black out I'm never coming back Fear of the water Fear of the water

Here stands a man At the bottom of a hole he's made Still sweating from the rush His body tense His hands, they shake Oh this, this is a mad boy Here stands a man With a bullet in his clenched right hand Don't push him, son For he's got the power to crush this land Oh hear, hear him cry, boy Don't you ever leave me alone My war is over Be my shelter from the storm My war is over I am a sad boy Here stands a man At the bottom of a hole he's made Still sweating from the rush His body tense His hands, they shake Oh this, this is a mad boy Here stands a man With a bullet in his clenched right hand But don't push him, son For he's got the power to crush this land Oh hear, hear him cry, boy Don't you ever leave me alone My war is over Be my shelter from the storm My war is over I am a sad boy Don't you ever leave me alone Be my shelter from the storm My war is over I am a sad boy
