Drive-By Truckers - The Home Front Lyrics

Artist: Drive-By Truckers

Album: Brighter Than Creation's Dark

Genre: Country

  • Songwriters: John Michael Cooley, Patterson Hood, Brad Morgan, John Neff, Shonna Tucker

The hours creep across her face
As she paces across the floor
And she can't even get to sleep
Since Tony went to war

She feels bitch-slapped and abandoned
By a world she thought she knew
Cold beyond comprehension
As their little girl turns two

Now they're saying on the flat screen
They ain't found a reason yet
We're all bogged down in a quagmire
And there ain't no end to it

No 9/11 or uranium
To pin this bullshit on
She's left standing on the home front
The two of them alone
