People From Bad Homes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
People from bad homes
Don't have the time
To look things over
Make up their minds
People from good homes
Dn't have the minds
To care for bad homes
Don't have the time
Home is the main line
Can't take the plain
Those people have notions
Play out this game
Stand on your own line
Stand high above
These people of caution
Trouble to love
Me I got no home
Just main street and wine
No one to hussle no one to jive
Me and my prospects just having a ball
Having the best time but nothing at all
Home is the main line
Can't take the plain
Those people have notions
Play out this game
Stand on your own line
Stand high above
These people of caution
Trouble to love
Home is the main line
Can't take the plain
Those people have notions
Play out this game
Stand on your own line
Stand high above
These people of caution
Trouble to love
