Story Behind The Song

The lyrics aren't based on a true incident. I simply came up with a cool chord progression and decided to add some words.

Song Description

The lyrics aren't really important in this song. It's all about the catchy tune.

Lyrics

Sand in my toes
and beer in my nose
and I'm comin' home today.

There's a hair in my booze
and there's feet in my shoes,
and I'm comin' home today.

Nothin' to make me stay out here...
Can't take another day out here...
Said to myself, "Get away from here!"
Now I'm comin' home today.

Rain in my face
and a lady in place
of a girl that I once knew.

I'm a flash-in-the-pan
with an axe in my hand
on a train that's overdue.

Singin' a tune just to pass the time...
Thinkin' of you maybe half the time...
Nothin' to do, so I'll laugh the time away,
and I'll be home today.

And if you'll stand outside your door,
you'll find the man you've waited for,
comin' round the corner with a guitar on his back.

And if you'll stand outside your door,
you'll find the man you've waited for,
hoping as he sees you that today you'll take him back.

Tears in her eyes as she tries to disguise
all the love she has for me.
I wait for a while before cracking a smile
and my thoughts are plain to see.

Two broken hearts that are mending...
Two rigid roles that are bending...
Two people finding a happy ending,
I'm comin' home today.
