Lucero - On the Way Back Home Lyrics

So young and so hungry
So unqualified
Don't want the jobs anyway
No settled life

To get outta here
Two options one chance
You joined the army
I started a band

We'll meet at the bar
We'll buy us a round
We'll toast that we're back home
We'll toast this damn town

Annie's still working
Behind the bar
You can buy her a drink
I'll sleep in the car
Let's go

It's on the way back home
We'll be there soon

One of two choices
I guess I've made mine
I drink in a different town
Nearly every night

And now you don't drink
For months at a time
I owe you a couple of rounds
We're back home tonight

We'll meet at the bar
We'll drink to old times
We'll toast that we're back home
And those left behind

Annie's still working
Behind the bar
You can buy her a drink
And I'll sleep in the car
Let's go

It's on the way back home tonight
