Carry Me Home

[Verse 1] Papa left this morning With a briefcase in his hand Mama took the kids to school Before she went to work Sister went to Georgia To get away from the smog Brother went on an interview Still trying to get a job [Chorus] Hey Lord, oh Lord I did everything I could do Hey Lord, oh Lord Carry me home, don’t be too long Carry me home, don’t be too long Carry me home, don’t be too long [Verse 2] Some friends of ours got married Everybody had a ball They partied till the morning And still they wanted more Couple looks so happy I wonder if they'll change Nothing ever stays the same So we have to move alone [Chorus] Hey Lord, oh Lord I did everything I could do Hey Lord, oh Lord Carry me home, don’t be too long Carry me home, don’t be too long Carry me home, don’t be too long
