Well, I played in every town here to fort Wayne Indiana Singing all the songs I know folks all I can hear Each and every honky tonk is somehow like the last one Just another place to call a home away from home Well, I took a job that sent me down to greenwood Mississippi 2 nights in the Gatlin land and on to baton rouge And one more stop in little rock then on to Tyler Texas Every club I play becomes a home away from home Lord, I miss the sweet breeze and the coast of Carolina And why she waits I'll never understand The road has gotten longer since I left for west Virginia I wonder if it's really worth the time I put in Well, the bus broke down in south of town and left the whole band stranded Not much chance of goin' home so we tried to hitch a ride Half the band got lucky on a diesel bound for Denver Just another place to call a home away from home Lord, I miss the sweet breeze and the coast of Carolina And why she waits I'll never understand The road has gotten longer since I left for west Virginia I wonder if it's really worth the time I put in
