Safe at Home Songtext
von Joe Grushecky

Sit beside me baby
There's a bad wind blowing tonight
Just want to sit here in the darkness
So please turn out the light

I shuttered all the windows
Pulled down all the shades
I pray the angels don't come calling
For the mistakes that I have made


Where is my Johnny
Is he afraid and all alone
When will this be over
When will he be safe at home

This old house seems so empty
Since our boy has gone away
I keep a date book by his picture
And I count off all the days

Father can you hear me
Mother Mary full of grace
Walk beside him and protect him
Won't you please help keep him safe


Hold on everybody
Hold on to your livers
Hold on to your family
Ain't it good to be alive
