Tour Song Lyrics by Robert Ellis

The Lights from the Chemical Plant

2014

She'll find someone to talk to
When she's feeling all alone
And she'll find someone to cook for
And to care for when I'm gone
She'll find someone to go with her
To all the Honky-Tonks
Ans she'll find someone to dance with
When the jukebox plays our song
And though I can't be with her
She is always on my mind
But there's so many things I can't do
From a Van in Carolina
Soon she'll start to wonder what it is that I provide
And why the hell a husband can't be by his woman's side
It's the choice I make
It's the price I pay
Just to hang out in some shitty bar
Then spend ten hours in a car
And play and sing a couple songs
But they never let us play too long
Before they shut us down and kick us out
And move on to another town
Well it ain't so glamorous as it sounds
And I need her more than ever now
She'll find someone to help her
To lift all the heavy loads
When she wants to see a movie
He will take her to the show
And maybe she will ask him
What he thinks of me and her
Will he probably agree that I'm controlling and insecure
When I ain't there to help with all the duties of a man
Will probably get to wondering what I'm doin' and where I am
Maybe she'll imagine me alone with someone else
And maybe she will think she ought to find someone herself
It's so hard to lay
In this bed I made
In a back of a cramped up dirty car
I'm driving out to some hipster bar
With people that I don't want to see
But I appreciate the company
On an endless string of one night stands
With okay girls and shitty bands
The good one comes by now and then
But I want to be back home again
Home again
Oh I hope she'll be there when
I come back home again - home again
Oh I hope she'll be there when
I come back home again
She'll find someone to tell her
That she looks good in the dress
That one that I had send her by the Federal Express
And in the shoes I bought her
She will walk by other man
And every one will stare and hope
That she walks by again
I know that she loves me and I know her love is true
But when she needs some company
What else is she gonna do?
She'll have some tough decisions
That may try her achin' heart
But everything feels different from a million miles apart
I know just how to cope
How to keep my worries choked
I'll go out to the nearest bar
I'll shoot some Pool and play some cards
Put the jukebox on the 32
The song that makes me think of you
I'll get so drunk that I'll can't stand
And think of you with another man
And cloud the pieces of my mind
That remind me what I left behind
