I miss my dog and I miss my home
I miss my mama and her cooking so
And late night picking with my dad
I miss those girls and the seeds I've sown
My high school buddies man it's been too long
When it comes to time I know I'm bad
I wanna build a house down in Perry co
On a couple of acres where I lay low
Just my woman, a dog and me
Well land ain't cheap and money's tight
I still got her to hold all night
Wait until the day comes and we're free

And I'll go
Head home to East Ohio
And I'll go
Say goodbye to this life that I know

Yeah I love my girl she's fine as wine
And I'm gonna love her until the end of time
And sing her every love-struck melody
And I grow my beard and I grow my hair
They keep me warm in this winter air
Along with my old Carhartt I got from granny
And I'll still beat on this old six-string
Turn a couple dollars and make ends meet
Write a few songs no one will hear
Stay in this prison they call a city
Concrete bars and lights a pity
Lord, why the hell I ever move here

And I'll go
Head home to East Ohio
And I'll go
Say goodbye to this life that I know

Well vinyl's cheap like whiskey drinks
And smoking cigs don't mean a thing
Long as you got a lighter in your pocket
And I'm crippled by the space I'm in
Drowning in Jim Beam again
Doing all that I can to stop it

I drown my sorrows and I drown my pain
Drown in a bottle of Buffalo Trace
And dream of a world just you and me
Well dreamers dream and poets write
Sinners sin and singers die
A little more each day don't you see

And I'll go
Head home to Ohio
And I'll go
Say goodbye to this life that I know
