Gee but it's great to be back home Home is where I wanna be I've been on the road so long my friend An' if you came along I know you couldn't disagree It's the same ol' story yeah Ev'rywhere I go I get slandered, libelled I hear words I never heard in the bible
An' I'm one step ahead of the shoeshine Two steps away from the county line Just tryin' to keep my customer satisfied, satisfied
Deputy sheriff said to me Tell me what you've come here for boy You better get your bags and flee You're in trouble boy an' now you're heading into more It's the same ol' story Ev'rywhere I go I get slandered, libelled I hear words I never heard in the bible
An' I'm one step ahead of the shoeshine Two steps away from the county line Just tryin' to keep my customer satisfied, satisfied
