Lyrics

PRODIGAL BLUES ( come on home ) COPYRIGHT E.C.WEBB

I HEAR THINGS AIN'T GOING GREAT FOR YOU IN PALMDALE
IN FACT I HEARD IT'S GONE FROM BAD TO WORSE
THE ONE BIG LESSON I HAVE LEARNED
AT LEAST SO FAR AS LOVE'S CONCERNED
YOU CAN'T PLAY WITH FIRE AND NOT GET BURNED, AIN'T THAT RIGHT

LAST NIGHT I TRIED AGAIN TO READ YOUR LETTER
AND YOU KNOW EVERY SINGLE LINE JUST BROKE MY HEART
YOU SAY THERE'S SO MUCH THAT YOU CAN'T EXPLAIN
YOU'RE SCARED YOU'LL LET ME DOWN AGAIN
WELL DON'T YOU THINK IT'S JUST THE SAME FOR ME

COME ON HOME, COME ON HOME
CAUSE' THINGS AIN'T BEEN THE SAME SINCE YOU'VE BEEN GONE
IT'S LONELY ON MY OWN, I BEEN LOVIN' YOU TOO LONG
BABY WON'T YOU COME ON HOME

NOW I'VE BEEN DUMB AS LONG AS I REMEMBER
AND I CAN'T PRETEND TO UNDERSTAND IT ALL
BUT SOMETIMES THE THINGS WE LEAVE BEHIND
ARE WORTH MUCH MORE THAN WHAT WE FIND
THE CONSTANT CRAVING ROBS YOU BLIND ANYWAY


COME ON HOME, COME ON HOME
CAUSE' THINGS AIN'T BEEN THE SAME SINCE YOU'VE BEEN GONE
IT'S LONELY ON MY OWN, I BEEN LOVIN' YOU SO LONG
BABY WON'T YOU COME ON HOME

SO CAN'T YOU SEE I'M TELLING YOU I LOVE YOU
CAUSE' NO MATTER HOW WE TRY WE CAN'T FORGET
THE BITS AND BOBS WE HIDE BELOW
THE LITTLE THINGS THAT NEVER SHOW
THE ODDS AND ENDS WE CAN'T LET GO, THEY KEEP YOU HERE

(REPEAT CHORUS TO END)
