Well, damn good to be back in Dulles,
My baby's at home with the radio on
A hot meal and a tall stiff drink
I think I'll sing her a lullaby
And I'll watch her fall fast asleep
And lightning was striking
and the clouds they did stare
As the sunshine pushed its way back
And there's only one place I wanna be
And that's lying half stone
I spent some time on a California line
I was shippin' parts back east
they released me from my chains
I had all the money that I'd need
And them greyhounds ran slow
Oh, but I was finally on my way
I stepped through the doorway
and that big house was empty
And there ain't no words to explain
And that's like half stone
from the pains in my life
All I can say is there'd better be a way for me
to hold close the one that I adore
before the time is through
And if ever a realm existed in hell,
it would be me without you
And there's only one place I wanna be
That's like half stone out
As a flying half stone out of my mind
