Josie works the counter at the downtown five and dime Anything at all to help her pass the time Her mama keeps the baby and grandpa rambles on About the good times playing in his mind It's a hard life living when you're lonely It's a long night sleeping alone It's a hard time waiting for tomorrow It's a long, long way home Josie spends the evening with the people in the pages Of the paperback she picked up in the store Or sometimes it's the TV or she'll try to write a letter But they don't come too often anymore It's a hard life living when you're lonely It's a long night sleeping alone It's a hard time waiting for tomorrow It's a long, long way home And I stare at the gray walls before me And I see her face in the stone And I try to imagine our baby And I wish they would let me go home And I wish they would let me go home And I wish they would let me go home It's a hard life living when you're lonely And I wish they would let me go home It's a long night sleeping alone And I wish they would let me go home It's a hard time waiting for tomorrow And I wish they would let me go home It's a long, long way home And I wish they would let me go home It's a long, long way home And I wish they would let me go home Bring me and the other boys home And I wish they would let me go home Bring me and the other boys home And I wish they would let me go home Bring me and the other boys home
