Lyrics
Home For The Weekend
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.
Don't matter if you're 12, 45 or 22
You walk through the door, better take them shoes off
Mama fryin' fish and whatever you want
Daddy and the dogs cheerin' LSU on
Who got married, who broke up
Who retired, who got fired
And who signed up
People say you can't go home
You can, you just can't stay long, oh no
You love it, you hate to have to leave it
Yeah you better believe it
It's good to be home for the weekend
Friday night fire at the lock and damn
Throwing out a line, bare feet in the sand
Ex-girlfriend askin' how I am
Showing off the ring I didn't put on her hand
All my friends crackin' jokes
Drinkin' beer, blowin' smoke
Keep me laughin' till I gotta go
People say you can't go home
You can, you just can't stay long, oh no
You love it, you hate to have to leave it
Yeah you better believe it
It's good to be home for the weekend
Home for the weekend
Where the cops don't care where you park your car
Even if it's on blocks, in your neighbor's yard
Sunday mornin' sermon workin' on your heart
Singin' with the choir where you got your start
People say you can't go home
You can, you just can't stay long, oh no
You love it, you hate to have to leave it
Yeah you better believe it
It's good to be, good to be... home
You just can't stay long, oh no
You love it, you hate to have to leave it
Yeah you better believe it
It's good to be home for the weekend
Home for the weekend
