lyrics

Back at home
There is a place
Just off the 416

With a sign at the door
And a fence all around
And a piano that’s missing some keys

Now johnnys in the back
He’s making some scratch
Turn up that kenny loggins

We got Jason at the bar
Ge’s going 50 miles an hour
He makes the best damn caesar you’d ever seen

So I call my own mama
And I tell her get her engine started
It’s 45 minutes out from Lombardy

And I know when I get in
all my friends will be waiting
Saying play that song that grandma use to sing

When I’m up on my third round
And all the liquors on the ground
Even the lawyers are now up dancing

With a hell of a crowd of people here
They always help me load my gear
I can’t even begin to tell you why

I guess there’s something about this town
That city folks should learn about
That makes it so damn hard to say goodbye

You can rib and rab or wine and holler
it ain't going to turn a penny into a dollar
It’s about the pals/friends you make oh all the while
