she ll find someone to talk to when she s feeling all alone and she ll find someone to cook for and to care for when i m gone she ll find someone to go with her to all the honky tonks ans she ll find someone to dance with when the jukebox plays our song and though i can t be with her she is always on my mind but there s so many things i can t do from a van in carolina soon she ll start to wonder what it is that i provide and why the hell a husband can t be by his woman s side it s the choice i make it s the price i pay just to hang out in some shitty bar then spend ten hours in a car and play and sing a couple songs but they never let us play too long before they shut us down and kick us out and move on to another town well it ain t so glamorous as it sounds and i need her more than ever now she ll find someone to help her to lift all the heavy loads when she wants to see a movie he will take her to the show and maybe she will ask him what he thinks of me and her will he probably agree that i m controlling and insecure when i ain t there to help with all the duties of a man will probably get to wondering what i m doin and where i am maybe she ll imagine me alone with someone else and maybe she will think she ought to find someone herself it s so hard to lay in this bed i made in a back of a cramped up dirty car i m driving out to some hipster bar with people that i don t want to see but i appreciate the company on an endless string of one night stands with okay girls and shitty bands the good one comes by now and then but i want to be back home again home again oh i hope she ll be there when i come back home again home again oh i hope she ll be there when i come back home again she ll find someone to tell her that she looks good in the dress that one that i had send her by the federal express and in the shoes i bought her she will walk by other man and every one will stare and hope that she walks by again i know that she loves me and i know her love is true but when she needs some company what else is she gonna do she ll have some tough decisions that may try her achin heart but everything feels different from a million miles apart i know just how to cope how to keep my worries choked i ll go out to the nearest bar i ll shoot some pool and play some cards put the jukebox on the 32 the song that makes me think of you i ll get so drunk that i ll can t stand and think of you with another man and cloud the pieces of my mind that remind me what i left behind
