Homesick
I've been feelin' homesick
Ever since I burned down the house
And I can't look in the mirror
Ever since you became someone else
Now I'm at your door
My heart is broke and my head is sore
Please let me inside
Give me a wink
Then pour me a drink
Baby I know I'm starting to sink
Let's lose what's left of my pride
Don't show me the door
Just show me the floor
And I won't ask for reasons no more
'Cause I don't ever wanna realize
Been at the bar since Tuesday
Just trying to feel alright
But my friends turned on me
And they tried to start a fight
The whisky told the truth to me
All of the things I was scared to see
But now I'm too drunk to understand
Give me a wink
Then pour me a drink
Baby I know I'm starting to stink
Let's lose what's left of my pride
Don't show me the door
Just show me the floor
And I won't ask for reasons no more
'Cause I don't ever wanna realize
Don't you mind the shotgun
I traded bullets for a beer
And I can't even remember
Why I even brought it here
Remember Disneyland
You, me, and Mickey walkin' hand in hand
Ice cream meltin' in the California sun
Give me a wink
Then pour me a drink
No need for the lawyer or for the shrink
All you need is to look in my bloodshot eyes
Don't show me the door
Just show me the floor
And I won't ask for reasons no more
'Cause I don't ever wanna realize
