lyrics

He said ‘yes, sir’
He said ‘no, sir’
He said ‘I can just walk home, sir’
If you let me
Just let me go home…

I’m a husband
I’m a father
Was the birthday of my daughter
Won’t you let me
Just let me go home?

He said ‘I’ve got a sister lives right up the road
I can go there, it’s no trouble at all…
Just grab my things and lock my car
I’ll be no trouble, Officer
Won’t you let me, just let me go home…’

I was hungry
I was tired
Just drove in from Carolina
Won’t you let me
Just let me go home?

Yes, you’re right, sir
I was drinking
And I guess you found me drinking
Won’t you let me
Just let me go home?

We both know how this story ends
I’ll be polite, but you’re not my friend
Once you take me down to the ground
There’ a good chance that I’ll never get up
Never see my babies again
Never tell them Daddy loves them
Never get to see them grow
But
You’re just doing your job, I know
Won’t you let me
Just let me go home…?

He said ‘yes, sir’
He said ‘no, sir’
He said ‘I can just walk home, sir’
If you let me
Just let me go home…
