I'm not much for making little wishes

But I'd like a little wish to come true for you

I'm not talking about loaves and fishes

But I wish that there was something I could do for you

Here's a little bit of cheap advice

To be taken in an hour of need

Don't assume that the life you left

Is the life you have to lead



(Chorus)

When you come home what you gonna do

Oh brother, oh brother

Don't you try to deny

What you know to be true

The same mess of misery that you done been through

Standing in line

And it's waiting for you

One kiss leads to another

Brother when you come back home



I'd like to know who's knocking on door

I'd like to know what they come here for

You'd like to say no

But the words won't come

Come in and sit down, seem to roll off your tongue

You forget to remember, to never die young

One kiss leads to another

Brother when you come back home

Standing in line, all of your friends

Standing in line, party never ends

Standing in line, the river flows, the river bends

Standing in line, all of your friends



- Chorus -



And that moon will be

Shining in the trees

All night long

Something bound to happen for sure

Soon you'll be

Stopping by talking to a friend again

Swear you ain't never tasted nothing so pure



- Chorus -



When you come home, your friends are dropping by

When you come home, the moon is gonna shine

When you come home, I tell you no lie

When you come home, they're gonna offer you a line

Standing in line, all of your friends

Standing in line, party never ends now

Standing in line, the river flows, the river bends

Standing in line, all your so called friends

Standing in line, when you come home

Standing in line, oh brother, oh brother now

Standing in line, when you come home

Standing in line, what you're gonna do now

Standing in line...
