Lyrics

Head For Home
-Ben Suchy
copyright 2003
written 10-27-03 Miami Beach, FL

V1: Been a long day but it?s alright/ when the whistle blows time to head for home
Get a cold one down at the Broken Spoke/ make a quick joke then/ time to head for home

CH: what about you? You and your own? Working these hands down to the bone

V2: In this rat race/ carving your place/ piece of mind/ as ya head for home/ you?re a simple life man/ cigarette and a beer can/ wash the day?s work down/ then ya head for home

CH: what about you? You and your own? Working these hands down to the bone

BR: Don?t have much but your friends are true/ Your little kids are growin up to you/ done some things that you read about/ spent some time tryin to better yourself/ so at the end of the road/ time to head for home

V3: The day?s work?s done/ let?s go have some fun/ being proud of yourself as you head for home/ the kitchen smells good/ about as good as it ever could/ your still half a mile out/ as you head for home/ then ya open up the door/ and a tug on your arm/ sends you looking down/ little smile little charm/ you?re a simple life man/ cigarette and a beer can/ you?re the family man/ that?s why you head for home/ that?s why you head for home/ headin for home/ you?re days go by and then you head for home
