Can't Go Home

[Intro: Struggle Jennings]

Heh, Waylon and Willie II, haha

They say, home is where the heart is, mama

[Verse 1: Struggle Jennings]

Made it out of that snake pit

Now snake skin on these boot tips

I see loose lips sank the last ship

So I set sail on a new trip

Some mistakes I never make again

Circle lot no one breakin' in

I gotta sit back and try to take it in

I know perseverance, what it take to win

Hard to push when the world pull

When the ones you love they try to burn you

Death comin' smell her perfume

Try to make it home before the curfew

I was runnin' late and the doors was locked

And the windows too, no where to turn to

After all the money I done burn through

I woke up broke on a church pew

With a new goal, an old .45

A fire in my eyes and some hunger pains

I spent my younger day just chasin' fame

To get burnt by the flames that money brings

Blazed trails and I torched bridges

Ain't no turnin' back I done moved on

Home is where the heart is

I've been heartless too long mama

[Pre-Chorus: Jelly Roll]

Mama says, you can't go home

You can't go home, you can't go home (Go home)

Mama says, you can't go home

Can't go home, can't go home

[Chorus: Jelly Roll]

I've spent some time in the house of the risin' sun

Mirror on the wall I'm in fear of what I've become

Same thing I'm livin' for, same thing I'm dyin' from

Mama says, you can't go home, you can't go (Can't go)

I've spent some time in the house of the risin' sun

Mirror on the wall I'm in fear of what I've become

Same thing I'm livin' for, same thing I'm dyin' from

Mama says, you can't go home, you can't go home

[Verse 2: Jelly Roll]

Early in the mornin' breath stankin' and yawnin'

I can feel last night from the dranks and the yoda

Heart beatin' so fast I was thinkin' it's over

Now my first thought is that I hate that I'm sober

Dealin' with the demons that I can't get control of

Dealin' with the ones that I can't get a hold of

How many day away from commitin' a hold up

'Til we be patient and even the haters'll show love

My brother told me, "Bubba get that check

And don't worry about bullshit 'cause you got next

Then we know when you get it that you gonna flex"

Then I feel overlooked like the New York Jets

Pay attention to them homies when they want for you

Back bitin' and actin' like they get along witcha

But as soon as you catch a case and end you up in the place

The motherfucker won't even hit the phone for you

I've done seen them stand tall and I've seen 'em fall

You can't me shit I've done seen it all

I ain't worried about the chips, you can keep 'em all

But I promise you this I'm gonna bring it raw

I'm just tryna put my people on

I'm just tryna buy some property from singin' songs

Tryna wake up from the cloud I've been dreamin' on

And I ain't plan on goin' back when I was leavin' home (Leavin' home, leavin' home)

[Pre-Chorus: Jelly Roll]

Mama says, you can't go home

You can't go home, you can't go home (Go home)

Mama says, you can't go home

Can't go home, can't go home

[Chours: Jelly Roll]

I've spent some time in the house of the risin' sun

Mirror on the wall I'm in fear of what I've become

Same thing I'm livin' for, same thing I'm dyin' from

Mama says, you can't go home, you can't go home (Go home, go home)

Can't go home (Go home, go home, go home, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go)

I've spent some time in the house of the risin' sun

Mirror on the wall I'm in fear of what I've become

Same thing I'm livin' for, same thing I'm dyin' from

Mama says, you can't go home, you can't go home
