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.

Go back home you damn fool

Surely you know you can't win

You should never have come near this place

You should have stayed outside, lookin' in

It's too late to turn back

Nobody asked you to try

But they blinded you with diamonds

And all the money that money can buy

And i'm so afraid of being on my own

But i don't wanna go home

You can't win you damn fool

You drank all the wine from the cup

And your painted lady's gone now

And you're way back on the downside, lookin' up

You can't catch the monkey on your back

Nobody asked you to try

But for every heart they held a spade

And you lost more than money can buy

And i'm so afraid of being on my own

But i don't wanna go home

I'm like a washed up rag

Tattered and torn

I wish i'd never been born

And i'm so afraid of being on my own

But i don't wanna go home

I'm like a down and out just blowin' my horn

Oh i don't wanna go home

I'm like a washed up rag

Tattered and torn

Oh i don't wanna go home
