Bobby Bare Back Home In Huntsville Again Lyrics

Back Home In Huntsville Again Lyrics

Open the gates up hey screw did you miss me Jimmy I see that you found a new
friend

Warden come down here and kiss me hello cause I'm back home in Huntsville
again



This suit that I'm wearing cost two hundred dollars

But I got it free with a three dollar knife

I got tailor made shirts with them long pointy collars

And all it's gonna cost is ten years of my life

So open the gates up...



I've been rousted and turned out at three in the morning

I've been roughed up and shook down and stood on my ear

I've tried to find work but they called me a jailbird

So I went for the bundle and I've wound up back here

So open the gates up...



I found me a woman as warm as the sunshine took her a year to slip out of her
dress

She talk about havin' a little rose covered cottage

But roses cost money and you know the rest

So open the gates up...

Yes I'm back home in Huntsville again
