Woman, I have to leave you
I can't stay where there is no pay
And I really don't care where I'm going to

Its been so long since I've been gone
Lord, I'm tired and I want to go home
My throat is raw from singing the blues

Need all my friends to talk to
Now yes I do need all my friends to talk to


Gonna search around til I find a friend
Who believes in me for what I am
Sing my song til it hurts

Play my music til I hit pay dirt
Now I got to sing my song
I got to play my music, do the things I love


Its been so long since I've been gone
Lord, I'm tired and I want to go home

My throat is raw from singing the blues
Need all my friends to talk to
Now yes I do need all my friends to talk to
