lyrics

Storm is rolling, my house is shaking
My man’s not coming home tonight
He drinks whiskey in his water
Likes to gamble with his life

Hard lovin’ woman and a hard luck man
Playing house in the promised land
Cracked foundations and real bad habits
And nobody tells me nothing

He’s coming home
He’s coming home
He’s coming home to stay
He’s coming home
Says it won’t be long
Just a few more days
And it’s been days

Love built on good times and real cheap thrills
Sex and oxygen won’t pay the bills
Gonna take my wounded pride downtown
And buy it something special

Smoke and mirrors
Smoke and mirrors
Smoke and mirrors won’t do
Smoke and mirrors
I’ve been saving my tears
Saving my tears for you

Tomorrow morning I’ll get an early start
Building a barricade around my heart
Oh I’m sick and I’m tired and I’m through
Of being your worried worn out fool

He’s coming home
He’s coming home
He’s coming home today
He’s coming, I guess he does not know
That sometimes fools don’t stay
They don’t stay
