[Verse 1] Gee, but its great to be back home Home is where I want to be Ive been on the road so long, my friend And if you came along I know you couldnt disagree
[Chorus] Its the same old story, yeah Everywhere I go I get slandered, libeled I hear words I never heard in the Bible And Im one step ahead of the shoeshine Two steps away from the county line Just trying to keep my customers satisfied Satisfied
[Verse 2] Deputy Sheriff said to me Tell me what you come here for, boy You better get your bags and flee Youre in trouble, boy And now youre heading into more
[Chorus] Its the same old story Everywhere I go I get slandered, libeled I hear words I never heard in the Bible And Im one step ahead of the shoeshine Two steps away from the county line Just trying to keep my customers satisfied Satisfied [Chorus] And its the same old story Everywhere I go I get slandered, libeled I hear words I never heard in the Bible And Im so tired Im oh, so tired But Im trying to keep my customers satisfied Satisfied
