Home Ain’t Never Home

Lyrics

I'm wanderin' these streets alone, they don't feel like home This once hallowed ground feels like a ghost town now I'm on the street corner every day, and at night I drink it away And this flask that saved my life, might be the death of me Ain't no man in this city will take a chance on me The color of my skin is all they see I was a hero when I came home, now no one seems to know And this medal that I received, it means nothin' to me I keep readin' my momma's prayers, but I find nothin' there That makes any sense to me Her god is no more than a thief I'm gonna pack up. I'm gonna leave town On a train car headin' north bound I'm gonna leave, I'm gonna leave With my lost hope, I'm gonna get out Carry burdens, carry my guilt I'm gonna leave I carry burdens, burdens, burdens, my burden Of watchin' good men fall and brave boys die Hearin' soldiers sob in the dead of night.. Every poor young soul that died in vain Every soldier lost in this country's name My guilt, and my shame No pride and no name, just burdens
