Lyrics

Homesick And Blue © 2018 Alan D. David, BMI (v1) This concrete’s burning holes, in the soles of these old boots It’s nothing like the farm back home, where I planted family roots God knows I miss my mom and dad, and the girl who waits for me And Kansas seems so far away, like a distant memory (v2) That man in the fancy business suit, said I was the next big thing Said take my songs to Nashville, he’d make sure they’d hear me sing But the shoulders behind those hallowed doors, can be stiff and icy cold So many ways of saying no, with heartaches bought and sold CHORUS It seems there’s nothing here for me, except rejection and regret Just the backstreet seedy bars, and the rent that’s overdue Maybe I should pack my bags, and these dreams I should forget I’ve never been this down and out, I’m so homesick and so blue (v3) I’m playing every night for tips, through the smoke and neon haze I never knew you could go so broke, in oh so many different ways Should I go or should I stay, chase the dream or pack it in My star’s not shining very bright, it’s looking awfully dim (v4) Nothing’s easy in this town, doesn’t matter who you know It’s more about who knows you, that’s the way it seems to go Hang in there kid that’s what they say, one day you’ll get the word But no one seems to know my name, not a whisper have I heard CHORUS It seems there’s nothing here for me, except rejection and regret Just the backstreet seedy bars, and the rent that’s overdue Maybe I should pack my bags, and these dreams I should forget I’ve never been this down and out, I’m so homesick and so blue INSTRUMENTAL BREAK CHORUS It seems there’s nothing here for me, except rejection and regret Just the backstreet seedy bars, and the rent that’s overdue Maybe I should pack my bags, and these dreams I should forget I’ve never been this down and out, I’m so homesick and so blue
