This is another great one written by my co-writer buddy from Franklin, KY, Todd Caudill ("Coach" here on the Ramp). One of those last minute tunes that got added to the new album ... just because it was such a powerful lyric. Thanks coach ... and thanks to all here on the Ramp, who's support means the world to me.
Waiting at Home
Words & Music by Todd Caudill, 2011 Lowcountry Tunes Music, ASCAP
Havin’ drinks with my friend when he-asked,
What-would-you-do?
If that smoking hot redhead, was-to proposition you?
I took another shot of whiskey, and I looked him in the eye.
I said she can’t hold a candle, to that sweet girl of mine.
Chorus
I might be a little drunk, but I ain’t stupid.
I might be a little ripped, but I ain’t torn.
Between what is right, and what is wrong
I got all I ever wanted, waiting at home
Instrumental Break
He said, come on man. What if nobody would know?
If she whispered in your ear, my money says you would go.
I said, next round’s on you. ‘Cause you’d sure lose that bet.
You can fill me with whiskey, but I won’t be filled with regret
Chorus
I crawled into bed. She said did you behave?
I said girl you know the answer, it’s always the same.
Chorus, Tag & End
I got all I ever wanted … waiting at home
