"I Shoulda Stayed Home" lyrics

I Shoulda Stayed Home

A short while ago
I thought that I could never be broke
Now I got you on my mind
A pack on my back and one smoke
My wife just quit me
And your husband's gonna sue me
But I forget it, honey
When you ease up to me
Home
I shoulda stayed home, yeah

I shoulda stayed in my room
That day you busted into my life
I said goodbye to my home
To my kids, to myself, to my wife
But I don't care what you might ruin
Keep on doing what you been doing
Home
I shoulda stayed home
Feels so fine, yeah
Blows my mind every time, oh

Now Samson, Napoleon
Adam and Caesar too
Well, they all got wasted
By a fancy woman like you
Now woman I would leave you
If I could
But your sweet loving's
So doggone good
Home
I shoulda stayed home

Hey, I shoulda stayed home
Shoulda stayed home yeah
Well, good golly miss Molly
You're so doggone bad
But you're the finest loving
That I ever had yeah
