Home, stay home
Stay home, she said
Home, stay home
Stay home, she said

I missed my chance about an hour ago
I heard you call but I couldn't find my phone

So I ease my mind with a bottle of wine
Got you thinking I'm here
Having a real good time
But it ain't so

Home, stay home
Stay home, she said
Home, stay home
Stay home, she said

I'm in the desert in staggering heat
There's a storm back home they're calling Irene
The rain won't stop, the river's gonna rise
And I'm not there to dry your eyes
And that ain't right

Home, stay home
Stay home, she said
Home, stay home
Stay home, she said
