They come to town when the war is over Dirty boots in the middle of the night Trolling the bars, hitting on the soldiers Boys give it up without a fight They say, "Hey, boy, how about your place? I know you really want to take me home" Drop the bags off on the bedroom floor They make love with the lights on, saying
"I'm a carpetbagger, baby I'm coming to your town I'm going to treat you kind I'm going to rob you blind I'll smile all the time Whoa yeah, whoa yeah, whoa yeah, whoa yeah
Sally could have had any one of the boys But she couldn't love no one she could not control Friend of mine and her got married I don't hear too much from him anymore Last I heard, he had a rope 'round his neck Dragging around the grocery store Carrying her bags and pushing down the aisles Saying, "I ain't got no home in this world anymore"
"I'm a carpetbagger, baby I'm coming to your town I'm going to treat you kind I'm going to rob you blind I'll smile all the time Whoa yeah, whoa yeah, whoa yeah, whoa yeah
They come to town when the party's over Books been written and truths been tried They'll take it all if the door's left open Steal the nose right from under your eyes
"I'm a carpetbagger, baby I'm coming to your town I'm going to treat you kind I'm going to rob you blind I'll smile all the time Whoa yeah, whoa yeah, whoa yeah, whoa yeah
I have got so much to give, I swear I do. I may not have nine lives, this one feels brand new. Yes I've lived a good one. I have tried to be true. There are some things I never realized, till I met you. How the wind feels on my cheeks, when I'm barking at the moon.
[chorus] There is no home like the one you've got, cuz that home belongs to you. Woo Woo! Here I come. Woo Woo! Back to you. There is no home like the one you've got, cuz that home belongs to you.
Well I was in trouble, bad. I was so confused. I may not see in color babe, but I sure can feel blue. I have been a lot of things, they may not all be true. My experience was so mysterious, till I met you. Now the sun may rise in the east, but I'm barking at the moon.
[Chorus] There is no home like the one you've got, cuz that home belongs to you. Woo Woo! Here I come. Woo Woo! Back to you. There is no home like the one you've got, cuz that home belongs to you.
There is no home like the one you've got, cuz that home belongs to you.
There is no home like the one you've got, cuz that home belongs to you.
