Lyrics

Been down a rough patch of road
All the lies I’ve told, well
Been down a rough patch of road
All the things I’ve stole, well

Been down a rough patch of road
Cuffed and stuffed in the car
Don’t you know, well
Been down a rough patch of road
Fingerprinted, interrogated
Never ratted cause that’s the code, well
Been down a rough patch of road

Don’t leave me on this road alone
Baby take me home, please take me home
Don’t leave me on this road alone
Mama take me home, please take me home

Been down a rough patch of road
Drugs and cops and judges you know, well
Been down a rough patch of road
Sold nearly everything I owned

Been down a rough patch of road
Hurt the ones I used to be so close, well
Been down a rough patch of road
Please forgive me Joe
Been down a rough, patch of road

Don’t leave me on this road alone
Mama take me home, please take me home
Don’t leave me on this road alone
Baby take me home, please take me home
Take me home now baby

Been down a rough patch of road
Life on the run will catch up with you quick
Been down a rough patch of road
Every knock at the door well it makes you feel sick

Been down a rough patch of road
I should’ve listened to that crow
Been down a rough patch of road
Secret of a long life,
Is knowing when it’s time to go
Been down a rough patch of road

Don’t leave me on this road alone
Mama take me home, please take me home
Don’t leave me on this road alone
Mama take me home, please take me home
Take me home now baby

Secret of a long life
Is knowing when it’s time to go, well
Secret of a long life
Is knowing when it’s time to go, well
Secret of a long life
Is knowing when it’s time to go, well
Secret of a long life
Is knowing, when it’s, time, to go
