lyrics

When I awoke last night I was feeling sort of down
But I didn’t want to wake you up
We were lying in our bed where your arms were wrapped around
Me cause we’re so in love

I wanna be home I don’t wanna be alone
No I wanna run home and stand on my own
Do all the things that I wanna do
With my man and my boys too
Watch them grow up to watch us grow old
Forget it it’s not meant to be

I was feeling all alone in this bed all by myself
Oh how I miss being home with you
But I’m not so then I’ll write it in my red hard covered book
That I miss being home with you

I wanna go home my god I feel so all alone
Please help me go home please help me help me go home
Do all the things that I wanna do
With my boys and my man too
Give me a chance I wanna chance I wanna chance

Oh Jason be good to your dad when I’m gone
He’s an incredible man
Yeah give him the love and things he deserves
When I no longer can yeah when I no longer can

So I’m writing a letter to my mom
And I’m using things she wrote to base my letter on
And if by chance well reading I get kind of sad
Well I can always call my dad

Lois Anne Hogan and then Tucker was her name
She fell in love with Dad who loved her just the same
And then Jesus Christ said he must drag her off to die
And gave no fucking reason why yeah yeah

I’m writing a letter to Lois
Lois Anne Tucker is my Mom
She’s gone but I still wanna hold her
But her letters and her memories
Are all I have and to believe
That her letters and her memories
Will keep me holding on to these
These letters from my Mom
