Wheeler Brothers - Spent Time lyrics

rate me

Well. I’ve spent my life of good times

I’ve found trouble in all the wrong places

They locked me up in jail

Sitting here stamping license plates

Staring at all those criminal faces

Until I break these chains

Oh I miss my baby, I can smell her on these letters

Like she writes me from our home

Oh I miss the swift sea, the waves and great blue ocean

The friends I have known

Oh I miss the sunshine, I miss the breeze upon my shoulder

Come carry me away, hey

When they set me free lord, well I’m gonna go and get her

And this is where we're gonna roam

When I woke this morning

They swung them gates open

And I stood there free of blame

I waited for my baby

Just to hear her voice again

But she never came

I gotta find my home, gotta find my home

I gotta find my baby, I gotta find my home

I gotta find my home, I gotta find my home

Gotta find my baby, I gotta find my home.
