HOME LIKE A NOMAD

OUT OF THE SKY THE POLICE CAME
TECHNICOLOR COSTUMES, SIRENS A-FLAME
WE WERE DRUNKARDS THEN, AND WE'RE DRUNKARDS STILL
BOTTLE IN THE GUTTER AND YOU RUN LIKE A MUTHR FUCKR

NO YOU CAN'T CATCH ME
I'VE GOT MY ROAD THAT SETS ME FREE
LAY DOWN YOUR LOAD AND RUN WITH ME
WE'LL FIND HOME LIKE A NOMAD
LOVE LIKE AN OLD MAN LOVE AN OLD MAID
EVERYBODY COME HOME

DEATH IN A CORSET, DEATH IN A CASKET
HEAVEN IN A BUCKET GO TO HELL IN A BASKET
WE DONE ALRIGHT, NAH WE DUN ALL RONG
IT HAUNTS ME IN MY DREAMS AT NIGHT
I CAN'T FORGET A THING THAT I DONE
NEVERMIND, BROTHER, IT WAS GOOD FOR ME
AIN'T GOT TO PAY MONEY WE CAN SWIM FOR FREE
TURN THE RADIO OFF AND WE CUT THE A.C.
TOOK A ROOK TO THE QUEEN
AND A ROUTE TO THE CITY

NO YOU CAN'T CATCH ME
I'VE GOT MY ROAD THAT SETS ME FREE
LAY DOWN YOUR LOAD AND RUN WITH ME
WE'LL FIND HOME LIKE A NOMAD
LOVE LIKE AN OLD MAN LOVE AN OLD MAID
EVERYBODY COME HOME

DRESSING LIKE A CROOK'LL MAKE A RICH MAN THINK
GOT HIS HEAD IN A BOTTLE AND HIS STOMACH IN THE SINK
I SOLD SIXTEEN BARS OF THE HOMEGROWN GREEN GRASS
MANILLA ENVELOPES, YOU CUT UP A COUPLE CANTELOPES
FEAST LIKE A KING WHEN YOU ROLL LIKE A FARMER
SWING LOW CHARIOT, CARRY IT ACROSS THE BORDER
LAWD, I THOUGHT I WAS GONE
THE GIRL FROM THE RECORD STORE'S
COMING FOR TO CARRY ME HOME

NO YOU CAN'T CATCH ME
I'VE GOT MY ROAD THAT SETS ME FREE
LAY DOWN YOUR LOAD AND RUN WITH ME
WE'LL FIND HOME LIKE A NOMAD
LOVE LIKE AN OLD MAN LOVE AN OLD MAID
EVERYBODY COME HOME

TRIED TO MAKE A GREEN SONG RIPE FOR THE PICKING
I THOUGHT ABOUT IT TOO LONG, MY BRAIN STARTED STICKING
TO THE INSIDE OF MY MOUNTAIN-HEADED HOLE
I WASN'T TRYING TO CONFUSE YOU
I WANTED JUST A LITTLE BIT OF
SOUL IN MY IMAGINATION, SOUL ALL IN MY BED
I WANTED SOUL TO RING ACROSS THE NATION
SOUL TO SAVE THE PRESIDENT SUIT
UP AND THE MUSE MAKE THE MINDS OF MEN DANCE
WEED IS AT THE MERCY OF THE GARDENER'S HANDS

NO YOU CAN'T CATCH ME
I'VE GOT MY ROAD THAT SETS ME FREE
LAY DOWN YOUR LOAD AND RUN WITH ME
I'VE GOT MY ROLLER SKATES ON
SMUGGLERS RUNNING TIL THE BREAK OF DAWN
SING ABOUT THE ROAD THAT SET US FREE
WE'LL FIND HOME LIKE A NOMAD
LOVE LIKE AN OLD MAN LOVE AN OLD MAID
EVERYBODY COME HOME
