faith hill - a man's home is his castle lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1:]
linda works the diner
pourin’ coffee, slingin’ hash
she said, “i wouldn’t have come in today
but i really need the cash”
i know i can’t fool anyone
’cause dark gl-sses tell no lies
but make-up won’t cover up a blackened eye
oh, oh, oh no

[verse 2]
you see, jimmy works construction now
but yesterday it rained
so he went down to the liquor store
and by noon, he felt no pain
i came in an hour late
then i let his supper burn
well, he hit the roof
hit the wall
and then it was my turn

[chorus:]
he said, “a man’s home is his castle
it always has been
and so it remains”
but he holds the keys in a fist of rage
his home is his castle
and mine is a cage

[verse 3]
someone much have heard the noise
and they dialed 911
and the cop who showed up at the door asked
“is there a problem, son?”
jimmy smiled and said
“no, sir
just a little fight, that’s all
hey, you know how it gets sometimes
when you’re layin’ down the law”
oh, oh, oh no

[verse 4]
so i pulled out my suitcase
i started packin’ up my clothes
and jimmy said
“now, linda
where do you expect to go with those?”

[verse 5]
i told him i have tried
but not an ounce of love survives
well, he grabbed my wrist
and shouted, “you’re not leaving here alive”

[verse 6]
she said, “i’m savin’ up my money
and when i get the nerve, i’ll run”
but jim don’t give up easily, so i intend to buy a gun
he will never see the way he treats me is a crime
somebody oughta lock him up
but i’m the one who’s done the time

[chorus:]
he said, “a man’s home is his castle
it always has been and so it remains”
but he holds the keys in a fist of rage
his home is his castle
and mine is a cage
