I Can't Go Home - Robert Cray

I can’t go home, no

Cause I know, I know what I’m gonna find there

My neighbor’s have told me

My friends have, too

They say, «Young Bob, if you go home»

«Things won’t be cool.»

«Things are gonna be hard there»

«You can’t go home.»

I can’t go home

Just can’t do it

I can’t go home, no, no, no, no

A friend told me

That your girl is calling some other man daddy

Ohhhh, oh man, I’ve dreaded this fateful day

I ought to go home and get my gun

And blow his ass away

They say there’s a law about it

I don’t care

There’s gonna be hard times ahead

If I go home

(Angry guitar solo)

I can’t go home

Cause I know what I’m gonna find there

I can’t go home, no, no

It scares me so, and I won’t have that no more, no

Why did this thing have to happen again?

And the guy that she’s hanging out with

Used to be my friend

And that’s so cold

That’s the sad part about it

I can’t do it

I can’t go home, no, no, no
