Afternoon Matinee: Protest - He Calls Home

Performed by Candlebox

Oh oh oh oh, come on

Well I see him everyday, in that blanket that he calls home

Wonder does he know, that his family they're left alone

He says brother can you spare, can you spare a dime

I'm down to my last dollar, and this life of mine

Said this life of mine

It gets rough at times

Now I wonder does he know, does he even care

That his family they're safe at home, and they wonder where

As he wanders through this life, he's ever searchin' for

A warm blanket on warm fields and he wanders on

And he wonders

Is he safe from the cold

Safe out from the cold (Mmm-mmm)

Well I see he left the other day, took his blanket that he called home

Did he go for good, or did he pass away, well I wonder does he know

See I'm down to my last dollar, and this life of mine

Said this life of mine, it gets rough at times

Now I wonder does he know, does he even care

That my family they're safe at home, and I wonder where

As I wander through my life, I'm ever searchin' for

My warm blanket on warm fields, and I wander on

And I wonder

Will I always be helped along

I said I-yeah, I'll never know, oh-oh

Because I-yeah, I'll never go, no-no

And yes I-yeah, I said I wonder why, yeah-yeah-yeah

Because oh-yeah, oh-no, I'll never go home

I'll never come home

Never come home

Oh won't you let me come home

'Cause I want to come home

But I-yeah, I'll never know, no-no

And yes I-yeah, I'll never go, no-no-oh

And yes I-yeah, I said I wonder why, yeah-yeah-yeah

Because oh-yeah, oh-no, I'll never come home

I'll never come home

Never come home

I want to come home

Won't you let me come home

'Cause I want to come home

Let me come home
