When a man leaves his home and walks out in this world alone

Leaves behind all the friends that he's known then a man is on his own



I walk through the night through the cold and the sight of a tombstone chills my soul

My mother's name is carved there in the stone

I would have been here long before if I had known

I don't know where my life's road will end this guitar is my only true friend

It takes the place of love I've never known it reminds me that I am on my own

When a man leaves his home...

Then a man is on his own
