The concierge, she kicked me out the front door

She put me on the Boulevard to stay

I spent last night awake and on the floor

Of some French hooker's shack

And I'm not even laid

 

I'm comin' home

I have overstayed my welcome here too long

And please don't blame me

If I've never had the will to walk alone

You can send a little message

Down to Amarillo, Texas

That I'm comin home

To stay for good this time

 

50 days of haulin’ bottled water

And 50 nights I've worked these cheap cafes

Another night and I’ll be on the road

Cause ever since I’ve got here

I’ve had hell to pay

 

Repeat Chorus

Repeat Chorus and End
