Momma ran off with a man from town

Daddy came home, found the note, got drunk and fell down

Jessie was crying, no tears would be saved

I couldn’t take it so I started pining straight for the grave

I should’ve told you that night that we slept in the car

I would’ve told you, but I never saw us getting this far

(2nd verse, same chords except where noted)

I met a man in a suit, he said he’d give me a job

I wouldn’t have to pay taxes and I wouldn’t have to rob

Man it was easy, all I had to do was drive

I didn’t care what was in the suitcase,

it felt good to be alive

I should’ve told you that night that we slept in the car

I would’ve told you, but I never saw us getting this far

I know I’ve been hard on you baby

Momma should’ve known that you can’t grow up alone

And we will be together someday maybe

There’s no place called home

(3rd verse, same chords as first and second verses)

Something was funny, the whole deal kind of strange

I could hear momma saying son your daddy ain’t never gonna change

I was down in an instant, just a big flash of light

Undercover lie bleeding, I guess I put up a fight

I should’ve told you that night we made love on the bar

I would’ve told you, but I never saw us getting this far

I know I’ve been hard on you baby

Momma should’ve known that you can’t grow up alone

And we will be together someday maybe

There’s no place called home
