Tell 'em I Ain't Here Lyrics

Dale Watson Tell 'em I Ain't Here

[Verse 1]
Now, the wolves are knocking at my door
And there ain't nowhere to run
But I've been down this road before
Still, it ain't no fun
Each passing day is one more
Than I thought I'd live to see
Discrepancy is just another
Way of life for me

[Chorus]
Tell 'em I ain't here
Tell 'em I ain't home
Tell 'em I ain't home
Tell 'em I done gone
Don't call no more
Leave me alone
Tell 'em I ain't here
Tell 'em I ain't home, no

[Interlude]
Son
Ah, move over baby

[Verse 2]
I've analyzed my situation
And I got the indication
That I ain't doing good at all
I need a new direction
And the Department of Correction
Is gonna be giving me a call

[Chorus]
Tell 'em I ain't here
Tell 'em I ain't home
Tell 'em I ain't home
Tell 'em I done gone
Don't call no more
Leave me alone
Tell 'em I ain't here
Tell 'em I ain't home
Tell 'em I ain't here
Tell 'em I ain't home
