Grebes - Back Home Lyrics

Thank You Donnie,

For all that money.

It was almost worth the hurt

You put on me, but now

I gotta get going



And thank you Chris,

For this ring - it glistens.

You've always been such a dear

But now I gotta go

And get out of here



Thank you daddy,

For dying quietly.

Mama left you

And after she left you

I decided to follow her



After I followed

I lived on the streets And it was hard.

Then one day the bank rang

And said you died

And the family house is mine



I've been joyful,

Living on my own here.

Ain't no Donnie or Chris

Or daddy or mama

To keep me down here



I've been painting the walls;

Planting new flowers

In the back around the lawn.

Just enough room for a new dog

And two cats sitting in the sun



Thank you Jesus,

For all the new faces.

All the neighbors coming over

Saying how glad they are

I moved into this place



Church on Sunday

The potluck's Friday -

I can't tell you how good it feels

To finally live life

For real



I'm not scared alone

Everyday I wake I see nothing but gold

All the clouds are gone

I'm living life -

For real
