Back To My Place

(album: Right In The Middle Of It - 2024)

A lady came by this morning
Took a good look around
Said the market's high and it's hard to find
This kinda house
With a brand-new roof and a front porch view
Of a five-acre lot
Said she had at least a hundred people
That would kill for this kinda spot

Outside the city limits
Yes ma'am, I'll miss it
But how soon can you list it?

It's been hell moving on
Since the day that she got gone
Ma'am to tell you the truth I really don't wanna move
But I don't know what to do with all this space
Yeah I ain't asking a lot
I just can't seem to turn our spot
Back to my place

We danced every inch of those hardwoods
So I laid all new floors
But making her memory go away
Is getting to be more than I can afford
Yeah I painted every worn-out square on the wall
Three-by-fives, eight-by-tens
Hell I even took a couple out
And they're still closing in

'Cause it's been hell moving on
Since the day that she got gone
Ma'am to tell you the truth I really don't wanna move
But I don't know what to do with all this space
Yeah I ain't asking a lot
I just can't seem to turn our spot
Back to my place
Back to my place

Yeah I know what it's worth
Trust me ma'am I can't forget
But no I can't get rid of her
So I guess I'll get rid of it
So take the first offer you get

'Cause it's been hell moving on
Since the day that she got gone
Ma'am to tell you the truth I really don't wanna move
But I don't know what to do with all this space
Yeah I ain't asking a lot
I just can't seem to turn our spot
Back to my place
Back to my place
