Country home company is coming today
Oh no, it's the weekend I think I'll go away
Usually it's quiet but it's always alive
And when it rains it never rains unless we're all inside
Beat the reaper it's a long way home
Could I ever think of leaving you - leaving you
Da-dn-da-dn ....
Spent the day with MDA in a field by the pawn
Sympathy, I'm glad it's me, this is where I belong
Sunset from the bathroom was diff'rent ev'ry day
We knew it someday we had varied, did it really matter which way
Beat the reaper it's a long way home
Could I ever think of leaving you - leaving you
Da-dn-da-dn ....
Smokin' or drinkin' or playin' guitars
We'd sing the night away, writing songs to the stars
And gradually all the comet lights would fly from our heads
We've been waitin' for the morning light so we could go to bed
Beat the reaper it's a long way home
Could I ever think of leaving you - leaving you
Da-dn-da-dn ....
Life is our as in the yard and here's stickin' it too
We've got a bone from a butcher shop and learned how to shoot
Jerry and Eddie not here in a word
They think that groove should be seen and not heard
Beat the reaper it's a long way home
Could I ever think of leaving you - leaving you
Da-dn-da-dn ....
