Everything Everything Carry Me Home
Papa left the house this morning
With a briefcase in his hand
Mama took the kids to school
Before she went to work
My sister went to Georgia
To get away from the smog
My brother went on an interview
Still trying to get a job
And Lord, oh Lord
I did everything I could do
It's just a phase in life
That everybody goes through
And Lord, oh Lord
I did everything I could do
And Lord, oh Lord
A friend of ours got married
Everybody had a ball
They partied 'til the morning
And they still wanted more
The couple looked so happy
I wonder if they'll change?
Things never stay the same
So let's move along
And Lord, oh Lord
I did everything I could do
It's just a phase in life
That everybody goes through
And Lord, oh Lord
I did everything I could do
And Lord, oh Lord
Carry me home
Don't be too long
Ooh, I did everything I could do
