A rough and restless night
My work's a useless fight
By the time I hit the freeway I can barely see
And there's trucks all 'round my ride
A Tesla weaving on the side
And there's only one place I want so bad to be
I'm just tryin' to go home
I'm tryin' to go home
I want to put aside my weary day and find a bit of rest
I'm just tryin' to go home
Oh Lord let me go home
Safely in the arms that love me best
The cops stopped Tyre's car
And they threw him to the tar
And they screamed at him and beat him to comply
As he lay there alone
The words he said cut to the bone
Calling to his mama as he died
I'm just tryin' to go home
I'm tryin' to go home
I want to put aside my weary day and find a bit of rest
I'm just tryin' to go home
Oh Lord let me go home
Safely in the arms that love me best
We're all tryin' to go home
We're just tryin' to go home
To put aside this weary world and find a bit of rest
I'm just tryin' to go home
Oh Lord let me go home
Safely in the arms that love me best
I'm tryin' to go home
Just tryin' to go home
