When I Go Home Songtext
von The Benjy Davis Project

This motel′s famous for its highway view
Free bananas, HBO, an empty pool
Guess you can say I have it made
Wouldn't give it all away, no
This van′s like a penthouse on four wheels
Except it shudders and it sputters and it squeaks
And there's a futon with my name on it
I just jump inside and get stoned as shit
And wake up when we're back in Baton Rouge


No matter where I go, baby, I ain′t home
Yeah, ′til you open up that door
I can smell ya, I can tell ya
That I love you even more
Than the last time that I kissed you
It's been so long, girl, I′ve missed you
You're the only place I go when I go home

Life on the road can freeze my soul
I come back here to get warmed up before I go
Just like the grease, sometimes I′m high, sometimes I'm low
But with her, I′m in a bubble, stayin' out of trouble
Completely unaffected by the world
I know sometimes it seems like I'm just here and then I′m gone
Like a style or a smile or a song

No matter where I go, baby, I ain′t home
Yeah, 'til you open up that door
I can smell ya, I can tell ya
That I love you even more
Than the last time that I kissed you
It′s been so long, girl, I've missed you
You′re the only place I go when I go home
