I KNOW THEY SAY YOU CAN’T GO HOME AGAIN
I JUST HAD TO COME BACK ONE LAST TIME
MAMA I KNOW YOU DON’T KNOW ME FROM ADAM
BUT THESE HANDPRINTS ON THE FRONTSTEPS THEY’RE MINE
AND UP THOSE STAIRS IN THAT LITTLE BACK BEDROOM
IS WHERE I DID MY HOMEWORK AND LEARNED TO PLAY GUITAR
I BET YOU DIDN’T KNOW IN THE SHADE OF THAT LIVE OAK
MY BEST DOG IS BURIED IN THE YARD
I THOUGHT IF I COULD TOUCH THIS PLACE OR FEEL IT
THIS BROKENESS INSIDE ME MIGHT START HEALIN'
OUT HEAR IT'S LIKE I'M SOMEONE ELSE
I THOUGHT THAT MAYBE I COULD FIND MYSELF
IF I COULD JUST COME IN I SWEAR I’LL LEAVE
WON’T TAKE NOTHIN’ BUT A MEMORY
FROM THE HOUSE THAT BUILT ME
MAMA CUT OUT PICTURES OF HOUSES FOR YEARS
FROM BETTER HOMES AND GARDEN MAGAZINE
PLANS WERE DRAWN AND CONCRETE POURED
NAIL BY NAIL AND BOARD BY BOARD
DADDY GAVE LIFE TO MAMA’S DREAM
I THOUGHT IF I COULD TOUCH THIS PLACE OR FEEL IT
THIS BROKENESS INSIDE ME MIGHT START HEALIN'
OUT HEAR IT'S LIKE I'M SOMEONE ELSE
I THOUGHT THAT MAYBE I COULD FIND MYSELF
IF I COULD JUST COME IN I SWEAR I’LL LEAVE
WON’T TAKE NOTHIN’ BUT A MEMORY
FROM THE HOUSE THAT BUILT ME
YOU LEAVE ON, YOU MOVE ONE
AND YOU DO THE BEST YOU CAN
I GOT LOST IN THIS WHOLE WORLD
AND FORGOT WHO I AM
I THOUGHT IF I COULD TOUCH THIS PLACE OR FEEL IT
THIS BROKENESS INSIDE ME MIGHT START HEALIN'
I HEAR IT'S LIKE I'M SOMEONE ELSE
I THOUGHT THAT MAYBE I COULD FIND MYSELF
IF I COULD WALK AROUND I SWEAR I’LL LEAVE
WON’T TAKE NOTHIN’ BUT A MEMORY
FROM THE HOUSE THAT BUILT ME
